The article analyzes the methods and criteria for evaluating the effectiveness of e-governance and e-democracy used in the countries of the European Union and the United States in the context of their implementation in the activities of state authorities and local self-government in Ukraine. It is emphasized that the main activity of the executive power is the provision of services to citizens, therefore, the concept of the effectiveness of the activities of state authorities and local self-government is inextricably linked with the effectiveness of the provision of public services. It is proved that modern information and communication technologies are an important tool for improving the efficiency of the provision of public services, which should be able to be used correctly, because according to the results of evaluating the effectiveness of the provision of electronic public services by the executive power, it is possible to judge the effectiveness of its activities as a whole. It is noted that currently the effectiveness of e-government is evaluated in two ways: 1) assessment of the readiness of e-government and 2) assessment of the socio-economic effects of e-government. It is emphasized that for Ukraine today, one of the priority tasks in the implementation of administrative reform is the active use of the national system of indicators for evaluating the effectiveness of e-government, taking into account the methodological approaches proposed by the world community. This will allow quickly responding to problems and risks on the way to promoting reforms.
