TAP portal is an innovative becuase:

• The development of legal acts does not take place in the form of documents, but is done in the data itself.
• Amendments to the legal act are completely automatically generated from the consolidated version of the legal act (data).
• The work of ministries, institutions and government has been completely transformed in a digital environment.
• E-government - work is continuous, regardless of the users' location and time.
• The process of goverment takes place regardless of the geopolitical situation, as the e-government can work from anywhere in the world.
• The circulation of legal acts is provided by the system itself, thus reducing the work of clerks.

The TAP portal was fully implemented in 2021 and has been in full use for a year. After the introduction of the system, there was an active user survey, online communication, working groups on improving the system.

Currently, system improvements are being made according to the needs defined by the users. The usability of the portal is improved and loopholes are fixed.

Conclusions after the implementation and start of use of the project:

• In order to develop a quality system, it is necessary to carry out a broad analysis of the expected result, a detailed evaluation of the existing processes and the definition of the new ones, involving the widest possible range of potential users.
• In the development of large information systems, the Agile method is very effective.
• Everyone wants to change processes, but don't want to change themselves, so it is very important to involve potential users from the very beginning.
• Moving from documents to data opens up very huge opportunity.

• The project was financed from EU funds.
• The system was programmed by a private company.
• Society, NGOs and the state administration were involved in the development of the project.
• The TAP portal provides information exchange with the 10 registers (Latvian Gazette information system, Legislative database of the Latvian Parliament, Information system for the control of adoption and implementation of European Union legislation, etc.

The whole society: Natural and Legal persons, NGOs, Media, Public Administration, Cabinet of Ministers, Parliament, President of the State.

Economic benefits: reduction of technical activities, proceedings and employees in public administration. Annual reduction in staff resources of more than 600 human months, with less human resources contributing to an equivalent amount of work. Extended remote work opportunities by reducing the use of office resources (energy resources, stationery goods, transport and room management).
Administrative benefits - Optimising the bureaucratic processes, reducing the time of development and decision-making of the TA by improving their quality. Transition to centralized, automated user administration using the Single Login module. Transformation of the State Administration and BOM job from a document-oriented process to data. All TA is signed only with a system or e-signature. Social impacts - the work of government and public administration has become more open, enabling any representative of society, regardless of the social group and location, to participate in government decision-making.

TAP portal facing challenges to involve all users for one common idea. One of the failures was that we analyzed too much and tried to develop small processes that took too long, which led to a lack of time at the end of the project. The challenge was to change document-oriented processes and user habits in the development and circulation of legal acts. Everyone wants to change processes and the habits of other users, but don't want to change their own habits.

Our project was successful because:

• The project team was knowledgeable, responsible and interested in achieving the result.
• A large number of users were involved in the analysis and development.
• Good cooperation between developer, stakeholders and owner.
• There was a great support of the senior management in the implementation of the project.

The system can be used at the municipal level to develop their own projects. The TAP portal could be replicated in other countries, adapting to local conditions and specificities of legislative development.

Not to be afraid of big challenges, but to see the big contribution it can bring now and in the future. When realizing big ideas, you should be aware that you cannot get a perfect product immediately. Perfection is not constant, but regular work on improvement.
