Enhancing e-government with a digital twin for innovation management

Abstract

Purpose The implementation of digital twin in e-government services will become the future of public service delivery. It has a great promise for significantly optimizing e-government service delivery in public services because digital twin can be leveraged to achieve value co-creation, which can be turned for innovation and new knowledge creation. The purpose of this study is to fill a knowledge gap in the domain of e-government with digital twin enabled. Design/methodology/approach This study examined the concept of digital twins in the context of e-government for innovation management. This research applied exploratory research discussing a dynamic and interpretive model that examines the main factors to consider when developing digital twins for the Fourth Industrial Revolution’s integration of e-government services. This study begins with a thorough assessment and then evaluates the results to propose a model that would be used as a benchmark for future research. Secondary data was gathered from a variety of previously published primary research sources, including peer-reviewed journals, case studies, periodicals, newspapers and books. Findings E-government with digital twin platform will become increasingly integral to business or public value creation and can be managed individually as people and organizations expect much greater value for their well-being that is linked to a number of better outcomes. E-government with digital twin will no longer to be seen as a static web service but the next enabling platform to offer a comprehensive digital advisory for each and every user. The digital twin’s goal is to extract all of a user’s digital activity processes and thoroughly analyze them across all of e-services. When there are crucial issues or problems that need to be alerted to the (physical) user, the digital twin will present options, solutions and recommendations based on the entire gathered data continuum. Research limitations/implications This study is conducted to provide a better understanding of the digital twin’s impact on public service delivery in the future. When it comes to e-government, a digital twin is a digital representation of an individual with the ability to integrate e-government services (such as e-citizenship, e-employment, e-participation, e-business, e-commerce, e-health, e-learning, e-regulation, e-entertainment and so on) with nearly real-time data and advanced analytics. Individuals will be able to improve, discover, foresee and make better and faster decisions as a result of the digital twin. The proposed model shows a future scenario for e-government services, in which the key principle of Industrial Revolution 4.0, Cyber Physical Systems, is accommodated by digital twins. Originality/value This study provides academics, policymakers and practitioners in the fields of technology, public and/or private service delivery and public policy, with the opportunity to define priorities, processes and outcomes of e-government services and thereby benefit more directly from the findings of the study. This study presents some novel insights into e-government services the use of digital twins to optimize public service delivery.

Digital Tools for Boosting the Impact of Fiscal Decentralization in Africa's Local Economies

“…AI and ML can also optimize the delivery of public services. For instance, geospatial data can help identify areas in greatest need of services such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure, allowing for more efficient and effective allocation of resources ( Anshari & Hamdan, 2022 ). Lastly, digital platforms can enhance citizen engagement by providing channels for feedback and participation in local decision-making.…”

Dijital İkiz Şehir Fenomeni: Dünyadan Örnekler ve Türkiye’deki Yönelimler

“…Yaşanan bu dönüşüm çerçevesinde ortaya çıkan e-devlet, e-demokrasi ve e-yönetişimi, DÇY yaklaşımının birer alt bileşeni olarak değerlendirmek mümkündür. Kamusal hizmetlerin yerine getirilmesinde karşılaşılan sorunların ortadan kaldırılarak hizmetlerin etkin, verimli, zamanında ve şeffaf bir şekilde sunulması için gösterilen çaba, dijitalleşme aracılığıyla yönetsel ve toplumsal süreçlere de yansımıştır (Anshari & Hamdan, 2022). Günümüzde yaygınlaşmaya başlayan dijital ikiz şehir fenomeni de bu dijital dönüşümün bir çıktısı niteliğindedir.…”

“…The process of innovation management involves the continuous improvement of multiple performance indicators within the company, encompassing positive outcomes, technological advancements, technical proficiency and the effective handling of new knowledge (Mirzarakhimova et al ., 2023). Studies dealing with various aspects of innovation management were also carried out such as implementations of digital twins in the context of e-government for innovation management (Anshari and Hamdan, 2022), assessment of the Uluslararası Standardizasyon Organizasyonu 56002 (ISO56002) innovation management systems standard (Tidd, 2021), development of an innovation management assessment framework (Lobo and Samaranayake, 2020), identification of the innovation management practices (Pertuz and Pérez, 2021), analyzing how innovation management capabilities shape organizational performance (Izadi et al ., 2020), innovation management in market-oriented SMEs (Didonet and Diaz-Villavicencio, 2020), the measurement in the innovation management (Melendez et al ., 2019) and roadmapping for innovation management (Amati et al ., 2020).…”
