DIFI works to ensure that government
administration in Norway is characterised by values of excellence,
efficiency, user-orientation, transparency and democracy. We aim to
develop the organisation and leadership of the public sector, with
coordination among public authorities and services.
Our tasks include:
-
Providing assistance with reorganisation processes in the public
sector
-
Developing a good national information policy
-
Supporting the development of leaders, employees and management
of human resources within the public sector
-
Setting up solid public procurement procedures
-
Encouraging coordinated and cost-efficient use of ICT within the
public sector
-
Making public information and services more accessible for
citizens and public agencies
On request, we provide public sector managers with advice and
assist with official reports and evaluations. We also suggest and
carry out assignments ourselves.
The Agency for Public Management and eGovernment (DIFI) was
established 1 January 2008, following a merger of the previous public
agencies Statskonsult, Norway.no and the Norwegian eProcurement
Secretariat.
The agency is overseen by the
Ministry of Government Administration and Reform
(FAD).
