Given the fact that e-Government projects are inherently complex, it therefore becomes imperative that a robust assessment strategy is devised for the existing e-Government projects that not only provides valuable understanding on individual projects but also provides for a backward integration into the process of project appraisal and capacity building. The DIT, as part of its overall e-Assessment strategy proposes to list, identify and assess e Government and ICT for Development (ICT4D) projects that provide any measure of e Government services, across India , to understand the impact, utility, sustainability, scalability and replicability of these projects.
