E-management refers to the behind the scenes information systems that support the full range of management and administrative functions of a government agency, including integrating data across agencies and governments, maintaining electronic public records and digital libraries, and developing new forms of organizations and working groups. For example, to develop the prototype for the state's new Web portal, a workgroup of physically dispersed state agency representatives used e-mail to communicate and test the bulk of their work. As government continues to work across traditional boundaries, both physical and organizational, e-management will play a greater role in public sector business.
