Abstract:
Over the past decade governments all over the world have been moving to providing
services to their citizens via the web with varying degrees of success. These e-government initiatives
have been the subject of extensive research. Our research is concerned with the transitioning from
electronic government to mobile government. Mobile government implementation is still in its very
early stages - indeed a perfect m-government has not been created yet. Transitioning from egovernment
to m-government requires researching 'the integration process between e-government
and m-government. It also requires investigation of all the pressures that could affect the transition
process. Such pressures differ between nations. such as a nation's technological and information
infrastructure, mobile device penetration and acceptance, public and social pressures, and security.
This paper reports on the preliminary results from an online survey of global experts on the success
factors of mobile government.
