During the same time period, over 56 existing services were restructured, making the information clearer and simplifying access for citizens and businesses, and 34 new service providers became available. The number of services and providers is expected to continue to increase, since the project is still ongoing.
Among the services offered on the two portals, many are transactions which can be made entirely on the Internet, without having to travel to the site of the service provider. These include requests for official certificates, the Change of Address service, the My Street (A Minha Rua, in Portuguese) service, guidance to starting a business, the Commercial Register and the Simplified Business Information service.
The improvements to the two portals are due to the work of the Agency for Administrative Modernisation (Agência para a Modernização Administrativa (AMA), in Portuguese), which maintains the portals, in collaboration with various public administration bodies.
