e-Readiness is generally defined as the degree to which a society is prepared to participate in the digital economy with the underlying concept that the digital economy can help to build a better society. Regardless of a country’s level of development, readiness is assessed by determining the relative standing of its society and its economy in the areas that are most critical for its participation to the networked world.
Generally e-Readiness assessments help the country’s leaders measure and plan for ICT integration, focus their efforts and identify areas where further attention is required.
There have been numerous attempts to devise e-Readiness assessment methods. These approaches are important and indeed useful to evaluate the stage of preparedness of a country, but they generally do not prescribe a clear course of action for the development of a national Action Plan. An e-Readiness assessment does not stand as a goal in itself: it has to lead to the development of a strategy and the preparation of an Action Plan that will address the opportunities and constraints identified in the readiness assessment to further the objectives of the country in the area of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). 

INA Academy’s e-Readiness Assessment Reports present a comprehensive assessment of e-Readiness 5 South Eastern Europe (SEE) countries (the Western Balkan countries: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Serbia and Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.
The report is focused on the contribution of ICTs to the eGovernment Development. The main objective of the conducted reports is to provide a useful benchmarking tool in order not only to evaluate ICT development in each country but also to lead to comparison between different countries.
