Introduction
Digital government is an important part of digital transformation. The in-depth application of digital technology and the extensive construction of various systems have increased the digital government's The complexity of digital government is that it takes overall planning, overall coordination, interconnection and intensive construction as its development content and characteristic requirements. Therefore, the application of The need to recognize, understand and guide the entire process of digital government through systematic thinking is becoming increasingly prominent.
The top-level design of the government can not only promote the organic integration of technical elements, but also help promote the formation of collaborative consensus among multiple subjects and resource allocation. Improved efficiency.
GB/T 45963 "Digital Government Architecture Framework" aims to provide a conceptual approach for the top-level design of digital government and enhance the The overall, scientific and continuous nature of the planning will help digital government planners, designers, developers and builders to establish a unified understanding and form a Provides overall guidance for digital government planning. In actual application, it can be selected and tailored according to specific situations and actual needs.
GB/T 45963 is intended to consist of five parts (as shown in Figure 1).
— Part 1: Reference Model. The purpose is to provide the content and design process of the top-level design of digital government in the organizational dimension, and to provide a reference for the implementation of digital government.
It provides unified reference and direction guidance for the government's coordinated planning and overall planning.
— Part 2: Architecture Design. The purpose is to provide the architecture design of government digital projects in the engineering dimension under the guidance of the reference model.
Design methods and architecture design processes are used to guide how to carry out the overall planning of government digital projects.
— Part 3: Governance. The purpose is to standardize the elements of control over the various contents of the top-level design of digital government under the governance dimension.
The composition, mutual relations, specific requirements, etc. provide various supports and guarantees for the smooth implementation of the top-level design of digital government.
— Part 4: Capacity Assessment. The purpose is to conduct maturity analysis and Judge, establish the basis and level of evaluation, and provide a path for continuous improvement for the top-level design capabilities of digital government.
— Part 5: Information Exchange Model. The purpose is to provide the extended content and specific application of the data reference model, and to specify the cross-border The requirement for formal description of information resources in the context of domain information exchange is to promote cross-domain common understanding and collaboration of data.

3.1 capability assessment capability assessment
Measure, analyze, and evaluate the capabilities of implementing the digital government architecture framework at different levels and states.
3.2 assessmentdomain
A collection of assessment items for conducting competency assessments.
3.3 assessmentitem
The specific content items of the competency assessment established within the scope of the assessment domain.
3.4 capability level capability level
A systematic hierarchical description system formed around the corresponding capabilities of a subject at a specific capability level.
3.5 describe
