GovSpecs Value Proposition
Value Propositions
Governments, the priority user group of GovSpecs, shall be able to achieve the following:
System Architecture: Planning of a system architecture and its software components
Building Block Scope: Scoping and gathering of functional requirements of software components
National Interoperability: Standardizing interface requirements to improve technical interoperability
International Interoperability: Follow GovStack’s recommendations to join international interoperability agreements and therefore enable cross-border use cases
User Experience: Use GovStack’s recommendation and patterns to unify UI and UX of government services
AI-Readiness (new with GovSpecs Strategy 2.0): Let AI consume Building Block API endpoints to customize citizen services using Building Blocks
Software providers, the secondary user group of GovSpecs, shall be able to achieve the following:
Government needs: Understand the needs of clients. GovSpecs can serve as orientation of the minimum functional scope a government would request.
These value propositions are especially true if scope of software component = scope of GovStack Building Block
For value proposition 1, GovStack offers in its specifications the “Architecture and Nonfunctional Requirements” for overall system architecture planning as well as for each Building Block a high-level “Description” to identify the software components which scope resembles GovStack Building Blocks.
For value proposition 2, GovStack offers in its specifications “Key Digital Functionalities”, “Functional Requirements”, “Data Structures” and individually additional chapters to define the functional scope of a Building Block in a planned system architecture.
For value proposition 3 and 4, GovStack offers in its specifications architectural “cross-cutting requirements” as well as “Service API” to improve technical interoperability between software components and Building Blocks.
