Nowadays, the Government as a Platform (GaaP) based on cloud computing and network, has come to be considered a new structure to manage efficiently data-driven administration in the public sector When the GaaP concept was first introduced, the ICT infrastructures that could underpin GaaP were not sufficiently developed However, the recent digital transformation has transformed the previous electronic government, which was system- and architecture-oriented As part of the next generation of government models, GaaP may reinvent the government at a lower cost but with better performance, similar to the case of electronic government two decades ago This study attempted to determine the priority of factors of GaaP by using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) methodology Because of the GaaP characteristics, we drew the main components for building GaaP from previous studies and a group interview with experts The study results show that experts tend to prefer publicness in terms of building GaaP Most of the factors that the experts weighed with the highest importance are related to the public sector, which revealed that governments should focus on their primary duty, regardless of the origin and characteristics of the platform in GaaP However, since GaaP allows governments to be more horizontal and innovative, the platform approach can fundamentally shift the existing processes and culture of the public sector The enhanced activity of citizens with ICT can also accelerate the introduction of GaaP Finally, the study showed that a data-driven GaaP is necessary to efficiently handle big data, contract services, and multiple levels of on-line and off-line channels In this public platform, government, citizens, and private sector organizations can work cooperatively as partners to seamlessly govern the hyper-connected society
