1. Major Criteriain Service Identification for
OSSC
1. Relevance to Public Needs
• Services must address common and
essential public demands (e.g., ID issuance,
permits, tax payments).
• Should prioritize high-demand and
frequently requested services.
2. Legality and Mandate
• The service must fall within the legal
mandate of the government agency.
• Only legally authorized services should be
included.
14.
3. Feasibility andReadiness
• Consider whether the service process is well-defined
and digitizable.
• Assess availability of skilled personnel, infrastructure,
and technology.
4. Impact on Service Efficiency
• Choose services whose inclusion will reduce time,
cost, and effort for both the public and the
government.
• Prioritize services that can significantly reduce foot
traffic at traditional offices.
5. Inter-agency Integration Potential
• Services that involve multiple agencies but can be
integrated into one workflow are ideal.
• Look for services where coordination adds value to

services in early stages.
7. Standardizability
• The service should follow clear, uniform
procedures and documentation requirements.
• Services with inconsistent practices are not
suitable without reform.

8. Trackability andMeasurability
• The service should be measurable in terms of
performance indicators (e.g., time taken,
satisfaction, success rate).
• Easy to monitor for accountability and
improvement.

service.
• Avoid services that require excessive
investment unless they meet strategic goals.
