e-Governance

[TheOne]

I'll appreciate if any of learned colleague provides some feedback on "e-Governance in Corporate Sector". I had studied some material sometime back about "e-procurement" but since that subject was very limited, I couldn't gather much information in relation to Corporate Sector. However, one thing became quite clear from that limited material that future belongs to "e-Governance".
Please no beating about the bush, "Andaz-e-Bazi" or "Tuk-bandi".
