| Post-implementation question | Verdict | Answer |
|---|---|---|
| Did the project meet its goal? | Yes | Yes. Digital signature and e-verification went live with nine services; over 41K government documents verified through them in year one. |
| Was it delivered within budget? | Yes | Delivered for SYP 199M against 205M, 20 days after baseline. |
| Are the benefits showing? | Partly | 82% realised: satisfaction 82% vs 85% target, 18 minutes to verify a document vs 15. |
| Were the lessons captured? | Yes | Three lessons: civil-registry test environments, payments tied to acceptance, the vendor team. |
