The Information Society. Project:
«ADAPTATION OF THE CHAMBERS’ INFORMATION SYSTEMS WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF
THE GENERAL COMMERCIAL RECORD (G.E.MI) and THE CREATION OF AN UP-TO-DATE
SERVICE FOR REDUCING BUREAUCRACY AND THE SERVING OF BUSINESSES BY THE
CHAMBERS» (2007-2008)
The proposed project,
whose beneficiary will be the UHCCI and which will be coordinated by the
Hellenic Center for European Studies (EKEM), has the following goals:
a)
The upgrading and adaptation
of the Information Systems (I.S.) of the 59 Chambers in Greece within
the scope of the operation of G.E.MI, so that radical changes won’t be
demanded of the Chambers’ IS that relate to their internal organization
and the providing of services to their members that have an additional
charge. This is also so that the support is strong for the local
reproductions that will regard information about Member Businesses of
the local Chamber (which will be in synchronization with G.E.MI).
b)
The upgrading of
Tele-collaboration and Teletraining Infrastructures in the Chambers,
through the creation of a dedicated room in each Chamber as well as in 4
other bodies (UHCCI, Brussels Office, General Secretariat for Commerce,
etc). The goals for those working at the Chambers are: the automation of
their communications regarding daily operations issues, electronic
collaboration and distance training. For business owners: participation
of local business owners in Teletraining, Distance Education and
Tele-collaboration programs, where room is available.
c)
The creation of an up-t-date
Virtual Private Network for the Chambers (VPN) through eurozone link-ups
and the application of tele-collaborations and teleconferences.
d)
The creation of a complete
one-stop shop for business services by the Chambers that covers all four
levels of Electronic Governance:
h
Level 1: Information
services
h
Level 2:
Electronic communication and interaction services between Businesses –
UHCCI/Chambers – Public Administration.
h
Level 3:
Two-way interaction services for the electronic submission of requests
to the Public Administration by businesses.
h
Level 4:
Complete services for electronic administrative processes and
transactions of businesses with the Public Administration, including
electronic signing and electronic payment, where necessary.
e)
The realization of a plan
for the publication and promotion of the goals and services of the
suggested project, in order to achieve the widest possible
sensitization, mobilization and participation by businesses in the
utilization of the project.
The project has been
approved by the General Secretariat for Commerce at the Ministry of
Development, who is jointly responsible, and the realization phase is
expected to begin soon.
