Abstract

The development of ICTs brings opportunities for governments to improve their services provision. Since early 2000, governments at all levels have increasingly enabled citizens to get e-services, or services online, which was the primary function of e-government. Although great progress has been made, studies indicate that e-services levels are still low and great variances exist. Previous research, that has explored the determinants of government performance on e-services, was often lacking an emphasis on government capacity. This study aims at examining the influence of government capacity (technical capacity, financial capacity, and administrative capacity) on e-services. With data from 146 municipalities in New Jersey, the research finds that government capacity, specifically administrative capacity, positively affects government performance in e-services.
