A theoretical overview, focused on the Romanian national profile Abstract: : In the last 30 years, the internet revolution has seized all areas of life, being undoubtedly one of the most important innovations of the century. At the same time, digitalization and e-government slowly followed the lead, significantly impacting the way citizens, businesses, and public administrations interact. However, now that all agents have integrated the new technologies into the socio-economic structures, the mere study of the two concepts individually will not be enough, considering the complexity of the current times and the challenges of the future. Therefore, the current paper aims to introduce a new element in the picture, namely environmental sustainability, as the practice meant to limit global warming and ensure healthy conditions of life. In this sense, we will start to illustrate the theoretical relationship between e-government, digitalization, and sustainability, with a focus on describing the Romanian administrative reality. Consequently, the subject will be split into two sections, first by looking at the related literature for an explorative approach, and then proceeding to examine the national case study. In the second part, we will start by defining Romania’s e-government status quo, in comparison to the other EU member states, while also showcasing what has been done and what is pending in the next years. Lastly, we will explore some sustainability implications visible at a national level, introducing new digitalization vectors such as NGOs. Having in mind the approach presented, the subject at hand can be considered relevant for the current public agenda, while the methodology employed will help fill in the gap in terms of e-government and sustainability connections, especially in correlation with Romania’s reality.

Considering each business flow a puzzle piece of the entire company landscape, we aim to highlight the importance of documenting each ‘working piece’ with no other priorities. Having this focus in mind, as business intelligence and software developers, we can’t imagine this puzzle with a missing piece. Being aware of the fact that a solid base is built piece by piece, both the image of the company and its productivity can suffer because of omissions related to essential details, details that in the context of competition in today’s marketplace end up making the difference between the clients’ choices. So, each piece, each workflow, no matter how small, is essential to the overall success of a company. In this paper, we wish to emphasize the importance of proper documentation that presumes a wellpointed business analysis, the foundation upon which a successful business thrives.
