Abstract

Digital transformation has the potential to profoundly change the way public administrations deliver public services to its users. One of the challenges involved in the inter-organizational networks that often govern integrated digital services is to identify what coordination instruments are effective. In this paper we examine this issue through a case study that deals with the transformation of invoicing services in Belgian public administrations at the federal and Flemish (regional) level. We review the coordination instruments and study how they evolved over time. Our findings suggest that transformation (1) might in part depend on the choice of instruments and multiple mechanisms. The mix of appropriate coordination instruments is likely to change as digital transformation objectives and governance challenges evolve over time. (2) Digital transformation might be a step-by-step process involving multiple rounds of digitalization and its specific implementation contingent on the

协调组织间公共服务的数字化转型——以比利时的电子发票为例

数字化转型有可能深刻改变公共管理部门向用户提供公共服务的方式。管理综合数字服务的组织间网络所涉及的挑战之一是确定哪些协调工具是有效的。在本文中，我们通过一个案例研究来研究这个问题，该案例研究涉及比利时公共行政部门在联邦和佛兰德(地区)一级的发票服务的转变。我们回顾了协调工具，并研究了它们是如何随着时间的推移而演变的。我们的研究结果表明，转化(1)可能部分取决于工具和多种机制的选择。随着时间的推移，随着数字化转型目标和治理挑战的发展，适当协调工具的组合可能会发生变化。(2)数字化转型可能是一个循序渐进的过程，涉及多轮数字化，其具体实施取决于环境
