Governance

Digital Blueprint

Monitoring platform to aggregate indicators and publish progress.

How the laws define this

Both instruments establish that the Digital Blueprint functions as a monitoring platform for the Estratégia Digital Nacional (EDN) to aggregate key performance indicators, promote transparency, publish reports for oversight bodies, and enable corrective or data-driven adjustments during implementation. They diverge, however, on the platform's status and operational scope. The Estratégia Digital Nacional (National Digital Strategy, includes Agenda Nacional de IA) frames it as an established governance instrument designed to support specific oversight entities, namely initiative leads and the Council for the Transition to Digital and Modernization, through published indicators and periodic progress reports. Conversely, Resolução do Conselho de Ministros n.º 207/2024 identifies the Digital Blueprint as a planned central repository and expands its structural components, explicitly requiring the aggregation of project dashboards, financial tracking, and public data for continuous monitoring.
