It employs a qualitative research approach and document analysis to examine OGP Independent Reporting Mechanism (IRM) Reports and government self-assessment reports, to get a sense of the nature of digital transformation commitments made within OGP national action plans. This includes a look at what the commitments are, why they are made, and their results. Ultimately, it is found that while few OGP members focus on achieving digital transformation results, most are not leveraging their membership to advance digital transformation. Moreover, those that do are not doing so in a way that addresses a clear policy or governance issue, rendering it difficult to comment on whether the commitments are effectively advancing open government. The mandatory assessment of OGP action plans helps, to some degree, to drive members to complete their commitments, and serves as a useful tool for advancing policies as they relate to open government. %G English %Z TC 8 %Z WG 8.5 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-03201955/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-03201955/file/500143_1_En_6_Chapter.pdf %L hal-03201955 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-03201955 %~ SHS %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC8 %~ IFIP-EPART %~ IFIP-WG8-5 %~ IFIP-LNCS-12220
