Case Abstract

Governments are striving to deliver more efficient and effective public services in order to achieve better public service quality, with reduced waiting times, improved cost effectiveness, higher productivity and more transparency. It is an issue of doing things in new ways which requires fundamental change in the provision of public services in the future and a complete new approach for Governments to work and interact with their citizens.

Cockpit aims to define a new Governance model which actively engages and empowers citizens in Public Service delivery decision making process. Cockpit will combine the research areas of citizens' opinion mining in the context of Web 2.0, enhance Service Science Management Engineering in the context of the public sector and encourage deliberative engagement of citizens for forming informed judgments on public services delivery.

Globalization increasing automation, and the growth of Internet are change-driving forces which inevitably stimulate Governments to reconsider the way they deliver public services

Target Users Description

Public Administrations: This is a wide group encompassing innovation driven local, regional authorities, representatives and associations, Ministries, Parliaments and Public Administrations at national and international level.

Public service theorists and policy makers: These groups have a scientific way to define all dimensions of a public service in a disciplined way and, hence, realistically estimate the cost of the public service, apart from improving governance of the public service decision making process, but also the predicting the  impacts that the delivery of a particular service may have in relation to related policies and policy measures will be improved.

Service Science, Management and Engineering academic and research community: this group targets all research communities interested in the project's developments

Citizens: This is the most important target group, they will be involved in the design of the new governance model by feeding their opinions and contributions in the public service decision making and they will benefit from the improvements the new model will offer

Industry: This group targets providers of opinion mining technology and deliberation platforms as well as developers of simulation and visualisation tools which can take advantage of the new achievements made during the project's lifetime.
