The impact issue and development of e-governance on shortening the terms of public service provision is urgent for ensuring the efficiency of government agencies. The public service delivery terms affect the effectiveness of the state's public policy and is directly related to citizen engagement in digital e-governance. The article aims to determine the effectiveness of e-governance and calculate the relationship with the terms of public service delivery by using correlation analysis. The article analyses the impact of e-governance on reducing the public service delivery terms among a sample of developed countries that have the highest level of digital public administration. The research employed a correlation analysis method between the E-government Development Index and the average term of providing various public services in the ten most developed countries in the field of e-government. The main principles of the formation and development of e-governance are described, and the efficiency of which, according to the E-Government Development Index (EGDI), is 0.95 and 0.97 in developed countries. The main empirical aspects of the proportionality between e-governance and a 25% reduction in public service delivery terms were studied, which is a positive result. The obtained results were interpreted, where a correlation analysis was performed with a resulting inclination of 2.03, which indicates a close relationship between electronic services and the citizen engagement. Further prospects for the development of e-governance are outlined with the aim of reducing bureaucratic processes and potential opportunities to shorten public service delivery terms through the use of digital technologies.
