The architecture model emphasizes the importance of user engagement, efficiency through streamlined processes, collaboration, and the use of technology standards for data sharing and service delivery. It suggests a comprehensive approach to e-governance, aligning business processes with information and technology architectures to enhance government services in a devolved setting.
- Presentation Layer:
- The presentation layer is the user interface through which citizens and businesses interact with e-government services. It includes web interfaces, mobile apps, and other user-facing components designed to provide intuitive and user-friendly access to government information and services.

- Objective: Achieve an informed, well-organized, and controlled government that optimizes services for counties and national governments.
- Key Functions:
- Is focused on better services towards countries and national governments
- Will not allow its facilities to be misused
- Is well informed
- Is efficiently organized and in control of its internal affairs.
- Business Architecture Layer:
- Objective: Streamline processes, promote collaboration, and provide a functional view of government lines of business.
- Key Functions:
- Describes government business functions.
- Facilitates collaboration.
- aims to simplify the existing processes and procedures,
- reduce the manual touch points and
- make the entire transaction cycle friendly.
- including its internal operations and services for citizens,
- Information Architecture Layer:
- The information architecture layer in e-government architecture focuses on the organization, structure, and management of information assets within digital government systems.
- It encompasses the design and implementation of data models, databases, metadata, and other components that govern how information is captured, stored, processed, and accessed.
- Technology Architecture Layer:
- In e-government architecture, the technological architecture layer focuses on the specific technologies and infrastructure components that support the implementation and operation of digital government services.
- This layer encompasses the hardware, software, networking, and communication technologies utilized to build and maintain e-government systems.
