Enabling reuse of citizen centric government processes through service oriented architecture

It is observed that information technology (IT) is being used to automate the traditional government processes and to achieve easy access of the information. They are developed to increase the efficiency of the government departments and represent their needs. As a result, they achieved a huge inventory of IT applications providing disparate processes implemented using different technologies and platforms. It thus became very important to use IT as an "integrator" allowing disparate processes running in different departments to interconnect. This helps the citizen to access different government services through a common single-point window and helps the government to transform from government-centric organization to citizen-centric organization
