Start date www.vtd.lt, https://www.testavimas.vtd.lt/portal/ VATARAS & VATIS are being developed consistently, implemented gradually (by steps), by using a variety of funding sources (Budget of the Republic of Lithuania, PHARE, structural support funds), considering the legal regulation of the Civil Service Department and IT development: • In 1998 Register of Officials, in 2002 it is reorganized into the Register of Civil Servants (hereinafter - VATARAS); • In 2004, it was started to develop Civil Servants Management System (hereinafter - VATIS), which is constantly developed by adding new features. • A new partially decentralized system of selection was installed in 1 June, 2013. • 2013-2014 Electronic Personal File (EABM). 7. Case abstract (brief abstract of your case) Max. 4,000 characters. The description should address the following questions: - What type of eGovernment service(s) is the subject of the case What is the range of the case (local, regional, national, cross-border) What are the main advantages of its implementation? Are they any plans for further development? A favorable information environment of human resource management was established in all civil and municipal institutions of the Republic of Lithuania. Institutions are provided with the information and the IT tool whish is necessary for public service management decision-making, planning and controlling and providing publich administration electronic services. VATARAS receives Data from state and municipal Institutions, contains data on structures, vacancies and occupied positions, and civil servants. VATIS purpose – to enhance civil service professionalism, transparency, flexibility and efficiency by using information and communication technology tools. VATIS tasks – electronically provide neccesary information for state and municipal institutions to make reasoned, transparent and quick civil service management decisions; supply institutions with IT tool; electronically provide information and services for civil servants or those who want to work in civil service and civil servants‘ qualification improvement institutions; inform the society (citizens). VATIS functions: - Collect, organize, analyze and provide necessary information for civil service management, state and municipal institutions and personnel administration (including the selection of candidates) and training organization; - Automate the orders of civil servants‘ certificates production and renewal of certificates as well as the orders of service passports production and updating records; - To allow the state and municipal institutions, civil servants and employees working under employment contracts electronically process the information about themselves in VATIS, to fill training participants questionnaires, execute civil servants‘ evaluation procedure. - Enable persons providing training to civil servants electronically manage information on their activities related to the training of civil servants. - To carry out specialized electronic exchange of data between institutions via VATIS and other information systems. - Publish civil service announcements and results of civil service competitions, announce information on persons who provide services to civil servants and civil servants' training programs; - Ensure the coordination of civil servants' training strategy establishment and enables to collect and analyze the data needed for the training strategy. In 2010 - 2012 the implemented VATARAS & VATIS modernization project enhanced human resources management, data transfer, reporting processes, as well as it reduced potential errors and ensured that the system will have relevant and complete data. The activity of analytical reports forming component was established for giving the opportunity to effectively produce analytival reports and provide information for human recourse managemant decisions. In 2013 VATIS selection module was installed. Its functions: - To enable individuals electronically sign and submit documents for the selection of a civil servant; - To carry out the general personal skills and leadership abilities testing electronically; - To manage the entire selection process in electronic way. Currently, a new VATIS module electronic personal file (EABM) is being produced. An employee‘s personal file in the institution – it is a collection of employee‘s given documents and the ones prepared in the institution. EABM purpose: - To avoid the duplication of the same information about a civil servant who accedes in another institution. The institution will be able to use already accumulated EABM information about the person; - A civil servant will be able to see and use all information about his work in institutions in one and the same place; - The person responsible for the management of personnel by using EABM documents templates will be able to prepare personnel management documents about a particular employee by taking information from VATARAS and VATIS. In the future we are planning to expand list of electronic services. 8. Relevance of the case to the eGovernment Action Plan priorities (or other EU strategic priorities) Which eGovernment Action Plan priorities are implemented within the case? http://europa.eu/legislation_summaries/information_society/strategies/si0021_en.htm Priority 1: User empowerment: develop services designed around users’ needs, and inclusive services: this involves, for example, developing personalised online services; improve transparency: the Member States and the Commission plan to enable citizens to have online access to their personal data held by administrations; Priority 3: Improving the efficiency and effectiveness of Governments and administrations: administrative burdens to be reduced: it is essential that public authorities use the personal data already available efficiently, while respecting citizens’ privacy. In order to do this, the Commission proposes to apply the principle of ‘once-only’ registration to certain data and to conduct a cost-benefit analysis of the principle; 9. Policy context and strategic framework What is the policy context of the case? What is the main problem to be solved within the case? Describe strategic and/or legal framework of the case. The project is influenced by two key facts: the First - a regular civil service legal regulation and management development, the second information technologies are constantly evolving, each year brings new opportunities. As the Civil Service Department participates in the development of civil service legislation projects and is responsible for VATARAS & VATIS development and support, it can be argued that the legislation has influenced VATARAS & VATIS content, and use of new technology ideas impacted the Civil Service Act and accompanying legislation content. For example, Selection – in 2002 we had only a test database while in 2013 a new electronic system has been installed and it allows to manage the entire selection process. 10. Target users or groups Indicate and characterize the target users of the service. Specify the scale of the group(s) – if possible. What are the expectation for the extension of the group in the future? Civil Service Department and other responsible institutions (Parliament, Government, the Minister of the Interior), the heads of institutions and personnel administrators from 582 civil and municipal agencies and Institutions, Business - civil servants' training institutions, civil servants and citizens - applicants to the civil service office; information is provided for journalists and published openly. 11. Technology choice and technology solution Indicate the technology used for eService(s) implementation. Explain the reason for the choice For the security of safety is used layered architecture, where the most important information is available only at the lowest level, and only in accordance with the user roles. System availability is designed so that parts of it can be changed and updated without stopping the whole system. For Data transfer between geographically dispersed information systems is used SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) protocol . All system components are programmed in C # programming language. Various means of establishing the identity of a person are being used: identity card, electronic signature certificates, electronic banking means, a 24 code civil servant card. The system users are allowed to be identified through open-source software. Software used - Microsoft SQL Server 2008 , Windows Server 2008 and CentOS Linux , Tomcat Application Server , Apache HTTP Server , Microsoft Hyper -V 2008th Performance of analytical reports are created by using the building blocks of business data ( Business Intelligence, BI ) intelligence software QlikView, based on the analysis of operational memory ( an in memory analysis ) technology. 12. Innovation of the case Explain the essence of the case innovativeness. Is this the global, European or national scale innovativeness? Technological, organizational? The project is innovative because the information technologies are used in human resource management at all levels. It is used by the Civil Service Department specialists for data analysis at the national level and the communication with the institutions, 582 civil and municipal agencies and institutions, heads of the institutions, personnel administrators manage their office staff, public servants use the system to access their data, correct it or to require this from the data processor, see vacant civil servants positions and the announcements of competitions, to provide information about the need to be transferred to another civil servant position by service volatility, it is an official way to find information about civil servants' training institutions, training programs for civil servants and instructors. Training services institutions are also subjugated to the system so that they can provide the information in an electronic way. The system is also integrated with other national information systems and automatically publishes the information to the public. The same system is used by candidates of the civil service – documents are admitted within the IT system which is available 24- hours a day, 7 days a week. Tests are done online. In this way, candidates learn the results and admit the documents on the same day. 13. Scope Cross-border, International, Local, National, Pan-European, Regional NATIONAL 14. Main results, benefits and impacts (qualitative and quantitative) for all stakeholders involved Max. 6,000 characters. Describe both assessed results and the expectations for further development. Civil Service Department is successfully using the system to perform its functions: it organizes and analyzes individual institutions, separate gruops data, prepares and provides information and reports. Department staff inspect the public administration institutions, the installed module helps to get information about the certain institution operatively and prepare properly for the inspection. The system also allows to organize the competitions of civil service quickly and coordinate the strategy of civil servants training (to register training institutions and training programs). Automated data receiving from the Register of Legal Entities, the Resident‘s Register Service of the Republic of Lithuania the Departmental Register of Criminal Offences, Register of Educational and Scientific institutions, Register of Study and Teaching programs, Electronic Service System for Policyholders, Internal Affairs Officials Register, Personaliztion Centre system was realised. The data provision interface was establised: - State Tax Inspectorate (the law of the Republic of Lithuania on the declaration of assets of population and other tax purposes) - Department of Statistics (official statistics purposes of processing the special wage index calculations from the 29 February, 1968 Council Regulation ( EEC, Euratom , ECSC) No.259/68 down the Staff Regulations of Officials and other servants of the Communities for and the Commission temporarily applicable to officials of extraordinary measures , article No.65); - National Courts Administration (data on judicial structures and wages of employees); - VIP Protection Department (information about the duties of the authorities access control); - Chief Official Ethics Commission (the Lithuanian Chief Official Ethics Commission Act and the Ministry of Public and Private Interests in the Public Service Law enforcement and private interests declaration for administration) ; - Public Enterprise Parliament Publisher „Valstybės žinios“ ( competitions of civil servants‘ or heads of institutions). - Personalization Center (the data about the requests to make service passports and civil servants‘ certificates); The system is useful for heads of institutions and personnel because all administrative and accounting functions are computerized as well as the system allows to carry out the Civil Service Law functions and interact with Civil Service Department in electronic way (announcements, curricula, assessment of civil servants , etc.) . Operators providing training to civil servants have the opportunity to provide the information in public about organized training for civil servants and the compulsory annual activity reports for Civil Service Department is streamlined. Civil servants - each civil servant has an opportunity to review the data stored in the system, correct it, or to require this from the data processor, a civil servant also sees vacancies in public service, provides information about the need to be transferred to another position of a civil servant, finds information on civil servants' training institutions, training programs and instructors and assesses the quality of training, receives advice in relation to the application of the Civil Service Law . Citizens - candidates for civil service can apply or register to take the tests 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Information is available to journalists and made public at www.vtd.lt . In the future we plan to expand electronic services and a range of publicly available data , as well as to add more data in VATARAS (politicians, judges, prosecutors, public officials and others). 15. Social and economic impact How the case changed the situation of the target group and their social/business/legal environment? Public management development program for 2012-2020 defines the main directions of development of public management and the expected results. The provisions of this program are focused on the most important public management process improvement. The target of the program is to create an open and responsible public management system in the public administration authorities and institutions, to use taxpayers' money effectively, to adopt and implement these solutions and provide a quality service for society. Specific measures and actions for the implementation of the objectives and goals of the program are set in the 2013-2015 action plan. VATARAS & VATIS are relevant in the civil service for goal seeking: to increase the attractiveness of the civil service - oriented to the needs of society and business results, to innovate , to increase its flexibility and expertise. Since 1st June, 2013 a partially decentralized system of selection has improved the transparency of the selection – applications are submitted through the IT system only, the test is done online as well as the test result is seen at the same moment for Personnel Administration Office and the applicant. The project encourages the development of information technologies in public administration institutions and civil servants‘ computer literacy. In addition, the installation of VATARAS & VATIS saves the state money because each public administration should not make their own separate personnel management system . 16. Potential for sharing good practice Max. 4,000 characters Describe the potential the case offers to learn from, including - Lessons that could be drawn from your experience Mechanisms that could be explored for exchange, transfer or replication Other countries, which use a mixed model of civil service management, having career posts and civil service models characteristics, can take advantage of project decisions. 17.

The Mortgage Register of the Republic of Lithuania Register of Wills Register of Property Seizure Acts Register of Marriage Settlements Register of Contracts Register of Notarially Certified Powers of Attorney Register of Legally Incapable Persons and Persons with Limited Legal Capacity Administering above mentioned state registers we collect data from data providers, register them and provide data from the registers, exchange data with other registers and information systems. All these services are electronic. All the registers are national-scope except for the Register of Wills, which is electronically interconnected to the European Network of Registers of Wills. UPCOMING PLANS Development of the Register of Notarially Certified Powers of Attorney On 1 January 2014 we will start a new electronic service for natural persons: to prepare and submit powers of attorney that do not need a notarial certification electronically. Natural persons will provide the principle with conditions to connect to the software of the register by using electronic signature, electronic banking services or other secure person identification possibilities and prepare and register the power of attorney which does not need a notarial certification electronically in the register after choosing one of templates (forms) of a power of attorney. The information about such powers of attorney shall be registered and publicized immediately after the data transfer. Development of Electronic Services of the Register of Wills To provide the notaries public with possibilities to present applications on acceptance of inheritance or refusal of inheritance electronically. An electronic service would be intended for natural and legal persons presenting applications to notaries public on acceptance of inheritance or refusal of inheritance. A person would form an application in the Internet programme by properly identifying himself first with information technology and connection measures. An electronic application is presented to the notary public in accordance with the territory serviced by the notary public. After the notary public approves of the application received electronically, the fact of inheritance acceptance would be registered in the Register of Wills. The service may also include presentation of requests regarding the property inherited to property registers, banks and credit institutions. 25. Relevance of the case to the eGovernment Action Plan priorities (or other EU strategic priorities) Which eGovernment Action Plan priorities are implemented within the case? Priority 1: User empowerment (develop services designed around users’ needs, and inclusive services) Priority 2: Strengthening the internal market (implementation of cross-border services at EU level) 26. Policy context and strategic framework What is the policy context of the case? Activity of the registers is administered by Civil Code, specific laws, regulations, approved by the Government of the Republic of Lithuania. Development of the Register of Notarially Certified Powers of Attorney and of Electronic Services of the Register of Wills is based on the needs of citizens, especially those, who live abroad. Also, the Register of Wills will be implemented due to the Regulation No 650/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 July 2012 on jurisdiction, applicable law, recognition and enforcement of decisions and acceptance and enforcement of authentic instruments in matters of succession and on the creation of a European certificate of succession. What is the main problem to be solved within the case? Main goal of the registers is to guarantee protection of civil rights. In the case of development of the Register of Notarially Certified Powers of Attorney we will create an e-service, which will enable to create and register powers of attorney, which do not need notarial certification, electronically, by identification with e-banking or e-signature. Also, this new e-service will eliminate a possibility to falsificate a power of attorney. Another problem which will be solved is that legally incapable persons or persons with limited legal capacity will not be able to create a power of attorney. On 1 July 2015 we will begin to register facts of refusals to accept inheritance. The fact of refusal will be provided also electronically, without notarial actions. Describe strategic and/or legal framework of the case. Applies the same as above in the problem description. 27. Target users or groups Indicate and characterize the target users of the service. Specify the scale of the group(s) – if possible. What are the expectation for the extension of the group in the future?

Case website address http://www.cust.lt 40. Start date Year 2008 - 2013 41. Case abstract (brief abstract of your case) European institutions seeking new methods to fight against international crime (terrorism, fraud, smuggling) consider information exchange between countries and institutions to be among the key measures to counter crime. As a result, in 2005 the Customs Department launched a project "Strengthening of anti-fraud transport movement controls on the external EU borders" co-financed by the European Union's Anti-Fraud Office OLAF under an institutional development measure of the Transition Facility's multilateral programme. In the framework of the above mentioned project in 2008 a vehicles’ license plate and containers’ number recognition system (NAS) has Max. 4,000 characters been installed at land and railway border crossing points on EU external borders. The vehicles’ license plate and containers’ number recognition system has strengthened the control of vehicles and goods movement, reduced the time needed to clear border crossing procedures, and created an opportunity for legitimate business to avoid additional inspections at border crossing points through the cooperation with the Lithuanian Customs by providing the advance information on transported goods. The system has been subsequently expanded, NAS has been modernized and the mobile NAS version was installed into the patrol vehicles of mobile teams of territorial customs offices. The system is used to exchange information between Lithuanian border enforcement authorities. Currently this system, based on queries, is used to provide information on vehicles to relevant Latvian and Polish law enforcement agencies. After other EU countries will join this project it will result in the development of a unified information exchange system between EU customs and law enforcement authorities protecting the Eastern EU border. 42.

This system, while not being specifically limited to, is used for electronic signing of Government acts, resolutions, decisions, and Prime Minister’s decrees, originals of which are issued in electronic form only. The system is also designed for document registration, sending draft legislation to the national Parliament and President’s Chancellery, transferring electronic originals to the Official Gazette. ELPAS makes extensive use of Lithuania's National Electronic Document platform and its supporting services. All users have electronic certificates in the form of SmartCards provided by our Citizen Registry for electronic signing. The system relies on services provided by the Lithuanian Certification as well as Timestamping Authorities. Electronic documents, which are composed, signed and delivered by the system, meet requirements defined by ADOC specification (requirements for human readable electronic documents). Finally, ELPAS allows transferring electronic originals to the State Archive of Electronic Documents for permanent safekeeping through the services of the Electronic Archive Information System. All documents are prepared for long time stroring and once a year they are transmitted for keeping at National Archives. ELPAS was developed in tight collaboration with the Office of the Government (former Office of the Prime Minister) and MIT-SOFT Ltd. The implementation of ELPAS system is based on Signa Docs platform, which is part of Signa product line developed by MIT-SOFT Ltd. After more than three years of designing, development, testing, training and running, the usage of this system can be considered as fairly successful. Otherwise the development of ELPAS system and its supporting Signa Docs platform still continues. Extending ELPAS usage to mobile devices (tablets and smartphones) is one of the current development trends. The system is also developed to be used with a wider range of electronic document formats, not limited to ADOC documents. We are convinced that the evolution of ELPAS together with Signa Docs platform will allow extending its usage not only to Lithuanian institutions, but beyond Lithuania’s borders as well. 58. Relevance of the case to the eGovernment Action Plan priorities (or other EU strategic priorities) 59. Policy context and strategic framework The ELPAS system extensively improves organizational process of processing Government’s legal acts and matches the third priority of the eGoverment Action Plan “Efficiency and effectiveness is enabled by a constant effort to use eGovernment to reduce the administrative burden, improve organisational processes and promote a sustainable low-carbon economy” Since 2009, the Government of the Republic of Lithuania has continuously stimulated various usage of applications with electronic signatures and long-time storing of electronic documents. However, paper documents still dominate, especially when long-time storing is required. The main goal was to provide ecosystem for creating, signing, registering and distributing electronic documents of the Government of the Republic of Lithuania. The project aimed to provide a convenient solution to replace signing of paper documents. Other goals: - 60. Target users or groups to reduce time for proceeding Government decisions to improve process of sending draft legislation to national Parliament and President’s Chancellery. to simplify procedures for sending Government decisions to the National Archive for long time storing. ELPAS system is used by the members of the Office of the Government of the Republic of Lithuania and all 14 ministries (including Prime Minister, ministers, vice-ministers, chancellors, and ordinary civil servants). But the usage of ELPAS, and especially the usage of its supporting platform Signa Docs, is not limited to the Government of Lithuania. Signa Docs based system may be used by any public or private institution willing to pass the preparation and signing of documents to electronic originals only. It is especially well adapted to the usage by the high ranking officials and managers, who need to deal with important number of documents. Signa Docs based solutions are already integrated into the information systems of the State Tax Inspectorate and State Social Security Fund Board of Lithuania. 61. Technology choice and technology solution ELPAS system is implemented as a Java Web application, so it can be deployed and executed on all major operating systems, and to be accessible through all modern Web browsers. ELPAS system implementation relies on Signa products stack. It uses Signa SDK, providing the API with the complete set of operations for the management of electronic documents in ADOC format. It also relies on Signa Docs platform, which provides the user interface for electronic documents creation, editing, content preview, documents signing, distribution, etc… At the very base, ELPAS and its supporting Signa products rely on a wide range of open source libraries and products available for the Java platform: XML digital signature support, document content preview and transformation, Web interface creation, documents storage, etc… 62. Innovation of the case ELPAS system is innovative in many regards. The system relies on Lithuania’s National Electronic Document platform, which is composed from: (i) a set of international and national standards, specifications, regulations and laws; (ii) the supporting PKI infrastructure and its services; (iii) applications and information systems, including the State Archive of Electronic Documents. In particular, ADOC specification (approved by the Office of Chef Archivist of Lithuania in 2009) was awarded as the main strategic innovation 2010 in Lithuania. The product line Signa (whose part is Signa Docs, and so ELPAS), was recognized as a winner of the national contest “Innovative Product 2011”. Electronic Archive Information System, which was launched in 2011, provides the first in the world Archive of (Official) Electronic Documents. ELPAS is the first information system having transferred electronic documents to this archive. To our knowledge, the Government of Lithuania is one of the first in the world (if not the first) to have started issuing Government acts as original electronic documents, signed with qualified electronic signature. 63. Scope At present, the ELPAS system supports electronic documents in ADOC format, and so its usage could be limited to national institutions. We believe that with the planned support for wider range of electronic documents formats, it will be possible to extend its usage cross-border. We should also mention that the electronic document definition, requirements for its content and its electronic signatures rely on open international standards (ex. XAdES, ASiC), many of which are recognized, implemented and used in other European countries. 64. Main results, benefits and impacts (qualitative and quantitative) for all stakeholders involved Max. 6,000 characters. The use of ELPAS system helps to be more efficient in terms of time, transport requirements and human resources, and ensures promptness and security in the delivery of documents to relevant institutions. We could also mention that since March 2013, the use of ELPAS has been extended to include a wider set of documents issued the Government of Lithuania, showing the recognition of its benefits. The principal users ELPAS have expressed their wish to access, to review and to sign documents from smart devices (especially tablets) showing that in the future the usage of ELPAS will be extended even more. 65. Social and economic impact The main goal was achieved: the system is quite comfortable when high level politicians need to review and sign a lot of electronic documents. They don’t need to know technological aspects, the system needs minimal software installation. So now it is obvious that the process of electronic documents procession can be as easy as the conventional way. Furthermore, we have benefited in terms of time saving transportation costs. 66. Potential for sharing good practice The implementation of ELPAS needed to reconcile different goals. Max. 4,000 characters On the one hand, we’ve had strong requirements for qualified signature creation application, as defined by international standards (ex. CWA 14170). We could mention the possibility to see the content of signed objects or the support for various signature creation devices. The implementation of such requirements involved the use of complex technological solutions. On the other hand, in order to be accepted by the end users, the complexity of document creation and signing process needed to be hidden and comparable to that of “conventional” documents (fast reading of a document, and fast signing of a number of documents). ELPAS is an example of a solution when sometimes contradictory goals are achieved in one environment and are accessible through a simple and intuitive interface. We believe that sharing our experience in its development and its everyday use would be of interest. 67.

Case abstract (brief abstract of your case) The State Information Resources Interoperability Platform, SIRIP is a system created to deliver centralized access to public services. It is a convenient electronic platform that offers an easy way for public authorities to design, deliver and manage e-services. It is also a universally accessible virtual space where these services can be applied for. Max. 4,000 characters Lithuanian public e-services: www.epaslaugos.lt Information Society Development Committee under the Ministry of Transport and Communications SIRIP offers these functionality: *national and cross-border identification and authorization of citizens, business entities and civil servants; *centralized data exchange among public authorities; *payment (direct and via payment agent); *e-service design (including testing environment); *e-service monitoring, auditing and administrating. Public authorities can use these SIRIP services for free without implementing their own solutions. SIRIP currently connects 159 government institutions, provides access to 556 public services and has had almost two million unique visitors to the central egovernment portal since 2008. In the near future SIRIP functions will be further expanded to include additional features: Legal assignment management – easy transfer of rights to natural or legal persons and Cloud computing - a secure online storage space for public authorities. The constantly improving, versatile SIRIP platform allows for quick creation of eservices and ensures mutual accessibility between the public sector and all recipients of public services. In short, SIRIP is a simple and effective way to implement innovation and developments in ICT for more efficient state governance. 8. Relevance of the case to the eGovernment Action Plan priorities (or other EU strategic priorities) Priority 1: User empowerment Priority 2: Strengthening the internal market Priority 3: Improving the efficiency and effectiveness of Governments and administrations Priority 4: Creating preconditions for the development of eGovernment 9. Policy context and strategic framework Interoperability between public administrations is crucial for achieving European integration and concerns core aims of the European Union. Member States and endusers have a great interest in overcoming barriers to easy delivery of public services across borders and sectors. While end-users are the final recipients of these services, the prime partners for the European Interoperability Strategy (EIS) are the European public administrations. Increased cooperation and commitment on the part of these key players are therefore essential for the development of the EIS. 10. Target users or groups The target groups are: public authorities, citizens, business entities. In spite of the fact that there is implemented cross-border identification, very few countries have developed similar solution for their citizens, business entities identification, centralized data exchange, etc. With respect to this problem it is expected to expand the use of SIRIP internationally by helping other countries to develop their own solutions and to create interfaces between these solutions and SIRIP. 11. Technology choice and technology solution The following key items were to consider when making decision about SIRIP technological implementation: Clear licencing and maintenance. SIRIP is made of several logical units, such as ESB, BPEL, eGovernment portal, payment broker, authentication service. Some of these components are generic to all industries, some require high level of customization to meet <IVPK> needs. Therefore of the shelf solutions were chosen for generic functions. These solutions were chosen basing on manufacturer support and knowledge available in region. ESB, BPEL, DBMS functionality is implemented using Oracle products - OSB, SOA Suite, DBMS. Components that require many custom changes were custom build on open frameworks, e.g. Apache Tomcat web application container, ZKoss enterprise web application framework. Lose coupling. SIRIP is made of separate components that serve specific purposes. The communication between these components is implemented using open standard technologies - XML for data structures, WS-S for data security, XML Signature for data integrity. Whenever it is possible, web-services are preferred to other means of interoperability. Each of SIRIP logical components may be deployed and scaled independently, technologically it is possible to host SIRIP components in public cloud service. Virtualization. SIRIP is implemented as virtualized platform and each component may be scaled when needed. Depending on situation, different resources may be allocated to ESB, BPEL, Portal, Payment broker and authentication service of the platform. Virtualization of the platform is implemented using VMWare solutions. 12. Innovation of the case Global innovation. Both technological and organizational. 13. Scope Cross-border, International, Local, National, Pan-European, Regional 14. Main results, benefits and impacts (qualitative and quantitative) for all stakeholders involved SIRIP currently connects 159 government institutions, provides access to 556 public services and has had almost two million unique visitors to the central e-government portal since 2008. Max. 6,000 characters. Seven e-services are created using SIRIP design tools and more than 90 e-services have been developing recently. Realization of State Information Resources Interoperability Platform has increased take-up of eGovernment services significantly (increase of 16% in 3 years according to Lithuanian statistics). All public authorities have centralized access to the main Lithuanian registers. Expectations Nowadays more than 2500 budgetary institutions out of more than 3500 do not have documents management systems. To solve this problem it is planned to develop centralized document management system based on cloud computing. Moreover, by realizing this it is expected the growth of electronic documents usage and higher level e-service delivery. 15. Social and economic impact This approach focuses on both the back and front office. Data registers and information systems, many e-services could be streamlined and made available in a user friendly one-stop-shop portal to citizens, business entities and civil servants. With the integrated development environment, e-service process building becomes a straightforward procedure that does not require advanced programming skills. Public service providers can request form, data structure, process and integration interface creation without leaving the comfort of SIRIP environment. It saves time and money for e-service delivery. 16. Potential for sharing good practice Max. 4,000 characters In spite of the fact that SIRIP has been helping to deliver e-services faster and cheaper and provide centralized data exchange among public authorities these should be considered before: *changes in legislation in order to create more efficient and user friendly e-services (Lithuania has been facing a number of problems that restrict better quality e-service design. E.g., because of legislation institutions are not willing to give register’s data for e-service design for free or to change the service procedure. For instance, sometimes a service user is asked to fill information into e-form even if the data can be gotten automatically. All these problems can be solved only by changing the legislation.); *standardized cross-border data exchange – everything should be designed in a way to make it easy to adapt to similar systems internationally. 17.

Case website address www.epolicija.lt 90. Start date The project has been started being implemented in May 2009. 91. Case abstract (brief abstract of your case) Max. 4,000 characters The Project gives possibility to provide: - Notifications to the police about the criminal acts, traffic incidents and other violations of the law electronically (reporting service is not for getting an emergency). - Applications to the police on the issuing licenses and permits, concerning firearms, pyrotechnical articles and activities on the protection persons and property. The project covers the entire country. All residents have the possibility of using the electronic services of the police. The major advantages have been distinguished: - People have a comfortable, interactive, easily accessible and useful service. People using these services save their time. Residents without leaving their homes, regardless of police work time via the Internet or a mobile phone can provide reports all day, from anywhere in the world. 92. Relevance of the case to the eGovernment Action Plan priorities (or other EU strategic priorities) - The spectrum of electronic services of the state was improved. - Work of private companies (gun shops, security services and dealers of fireworks) and police stations became easier. The transference of police services into the electronic space is an important step, which better organizes work time not only of private companies (gun shops, security services and dealers of fireworks) but the police as well. Moreover, the system of police electronic services ensures better performance of the computerized data filing system, which record and maintain such data as firearm’s type, make, model, caliber and serial number, as well as the names and addresses of the supplier and the person acquiring or possessing the firearm. Transference of the police public service “Notifications to the police” into electronic space is financed by European Regional Development Fund according to Economic growth program's 3rd priority „Informational society for everyone" implementation means No. VP2-3.1-IVPK-01 "e-Government services". Police department implemented this project according to the Government decision No. 1097 on the confirmation the measures of the plan of implementation strategy of public administration development of 6th November 2006. 93. Policy context and strategic framework Public service “Notifications to the police” is one of 20 services, which were confirmed by the Council of European Union as priorities of electronic public services. 94. Target users or groups All the residents of Lithuania have a possibility to provide notifications to the police about the criminal acts, traffic incidents and other law violations in an electronic way. The other group involved is the owners of firearms and enterprises, which deal firearms or pyrotechnical articles, private security services as well. 95. Technology choice and technology solution Used technologies: - Liferay portal (liferay.com) as a basis for ePolicija.lt portal - provides configurable open source platform compatible with portlet specification. Provides most content management tools needed. Allows custom themes, embedding of other applications as portlets and provides tools for overriding Liferay code where needed. - ZK framework(zkoss.org) for creating UI of most of the custom portlets - Convenient event model, contains lots of out-of-the-box components and provides simple means of extending existing components. Makes use of expression language when defining web page content. Supports portlet specification. - Spring framework (spring.io) for managing business logic layer of the portlets Provides IOC, transactions and many more features, combining into the backbone of the application. - JMS for transferring messages to and from other systems. - ORM for saving entities. 96. Innovation of the case A unique solution for gun stores’ interaction with police was created in the scope of this project. This solution completely replaces the old paper licenses based system of gun control in Lithuania. Control of circulation of guns in Lithuania is controlled by police by gun stores’ account ant the Subsystem of licensed activities. Gun store’s account allows bundle of actions to perform online: - check the validity of customer’s license before selling a gun; - provide information of imported guns to the police; - transfer guns between stores within the same legal entity; - Police is notified about all actions performed at gun stores account. A bundle of police services is available online. There were no police electronic services before this project in Lithuania. The solution simplifies and quickens provision of services either to police officers or to people. 97. Scope ePolicija.lt portal is the national website where all the residents can find and use the services of the portal they are interested in and get to know all information concerned with ePolicija.lt. 98. Main results, benefits and impacts (qualitative and quantitative) for all stakeholders involved Max. 6,000 characters. 99. By using ePolicija.lt service portal, it is possible to notify about the incident, to give a report or application by signing documents needed with an electronic signature, to observe the state of service administration and provide feedback about the quality of services. Social and economic impact All the residents have a possibility to provide notifications to the police about the criminal acts, traffic incidents and other law violations in an electronic way. This comfortable and easily accessible public police service saves their time. Applications to the police on the issuing licenses and permits, concerning firearms, pyrotechnical products and the security of persons and property activities have been changed. Such target groups as gun shops have to provide all information to the police only in electronic way. After this project has been implemented their business environment was also changed. Firearms dealers, private security services and dealers of fireworks save their time, so that we have positive economic impact. 100. Potential for sharing good practice - Comprehensive communication between developers and business specialists from customer is essential; - Implementation of successful information system may require changes in legislation; - Avoid dependencies on obsolete systems; - Choose solutions that best matches your needs; - Do not try to implement all possible services. Implement only those services which will be used and usable by electronic means. Max. 4,000 characters 101.

Policy context and strategic framework European Commission Regulation on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions; Digital Agenda for Europe, 2010-2020, eGovernment Action Plan; ISA (Interoperability Solutions for European Public Administrations) Work Program. ISA is a European Union programme (implemented by the Commission) contributing to a European Union free from electronic barriers at national borders. The ISA programme facilitates electronic cross-border and cross-sector interaction between European public administrations. This Project, as a project STORK, is delivering in Lithuania a set of common specifications and a common platform for interoperability of officially issued elD (including a European-wide Quality Authentication Assurance Scheme) that was demonstrated by six operational pilots to ensure protected, secure and private cross-border access to eServices (mainly eGovernment services) to European citizens, supporting their mobility in Europe. Building on the success and results of the first STORK project, STORK 2.0 (launched in 2012) goes a step further towards a single framework and infrastructure for crossborder electronic identification and authentication (elD). STORK 2.0 extends the authentication to legal persons, and thus including the powers of representation, especially focused on the support for authentication SMEs. While STORK was focused on the public sector, STORK 2.0 increases the scope of usability to the private sector with four new pilots: eLearning and academic gualifications, eBanking and public Services for Business and eHealth. 10.
