Reproducibility package for GovTech Maturity Index (GTMI) 2025 Update
Overview
The GovTech Maturity Index (GTMI) provides a snapshot of the public sector digital transformation across 198 economies, presenting the good practices together with gaps that represent opportunities for improvement. The GTMI is a composite index that captures the maturity of four GovTech focus areas through 48 indicators covering: (i) core government systems and shared digital infrastructure, (ii) online public service delivery and open data, (iii) digital citizen engagement, and (iv) GovTech enablers including dimensions such as strategy, institutions, laws, digital skills, innovation, and startup policies.
The GTMI is not intended to create a ranking or assess a country’s readiness for or performance of GovTech; rather, it complements existing tools and diagnostics by providing an overview of global GovTech practices to assist practitioners in the design of digital transformation interventions. To do this, the GTMI 2025 update draws on two sources of data: (a) online survey responses from 158 participating economies, and (b) remotely collected data from the public web resources of the remaining non-participating economies.
The construction of the GTMI is primarily based on the World Bank’s GovTech Dataset which is an Excel file posted on the WBG Data Catalog. The GTMI 2025 update maintains the 2022 methodology with minor adjustments. Based on the maturity of GovTech focus areas, economies are grouped into four categories, A to D.
