Then, the electronic government (e-government) maturity model is used to provide a deep insight into the content every website, and in order to determine the maturity stage of each governorate website in terms of electronic transactions. After that, each website of the 27 governorates is assigned to a certain maturity level of e-government. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is then used to analyses each governorate website and visualize the system design. The research then proposes a standardized portal model for all governorates that takes into consideration the active citizens' participation.After data analysis, it was found that most governorate websites only pass the informative stage of the e- government maturity model. The use of UML has also provided a clear visual view of the current situation of each governorate website, and how the governorate portal should be.The investigation results promote the construction of a standardized portal that can be used to provide citizens of different governorates a single point of access to their own governorate mission, vision, internal structure, interactive maps, statistical data and financial reports, public authority contacts, governorate news and event calendar.
