The process to develop sustainable public policies is precisely defined in public authorities to ensure the involvement of all stakeholders and to ensure the creation of an effective policy. The inclusion of ICT in most of the today's applied policy making processes in public authorities is mostly less considered. Indeed, other process definitions with focus on ICT inclusion in policy modeling still exist, but they are mostly not well defined. This chapter gives an overview about the existing policy modeling process types and explains their major focus and how they consider ICT and the practical process in public authorities. Afterwards based on these descriptions the general requirements on a new ICT-oriented policy modeling process that allows the inclusion of ICT into a valid and useful process for public authorities will be given.
