Also, increasing the training and education factor will positively increase the decentralization factor. ICT infrastructure alone cannot achieve the implementation of eGovernment without a conscious policy designed to transform both the role of ICT in administration and the training and orientation of staff to imbibe innovations. it will be easier for people to be involved with new technology when all the essential things for life are covered. Computer and Internet experience impact eReadiness. public sector organizations should pay more attention to the recruitment and training of socalled big data talent or data scientists. In addition, there is a need to feel that there are benefits from requesting such a service online (perceived usefulness), on another hand, ease of use of the eGovernment website has no significant impact of eReadiness. ICT infrastructure and human capital get less weight, while indicators such as connectivity and regulations acquire more weight.

Although GoP offers a range of services to public, but due to poor IT policies, and insufficient ICT services in the country, end user does not get benefit [17]. Since the government services lacks the transparency due to manual delivery system, therefore the citizens are either required to bribe administers to receive basic services or they are affected by the biases of officials who provide the services.…”

Effective Public Service Delivery (PSD) remains a challenging task for Public Sector Management (PSM) in most developing countries. Pakistan has developed its Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and introduced e-governance. However, there remains an increasing gap between government and citizens in context of service delivery. There are number of possible barriers towards successful implementation of e-governance in the country. This paper aims to:  Study key contrasts between manual and electronic PSD systems and its association with good governance, decentralisation, and socioeconomic development;   Highlight the justification to e-governance and its benefits for the Government of Pakistan (GoP);   Identify the key objectives for the GoP to successfully entrench e-governance with all stakeholders; and   Identify policy options for the GoP with valued recommendations, which includes institutional and cultural reforms with electronic-Public Service Delivery (e-PSD).
