Abstract: The housing sector in Algeria has undergone huge transformations to improve the supply process. One of the major changes that has been operated is related to the introduction of information technology in the practice of controlling the eligibility of applicants for public housing. As a result, the National Housing File has been created, marking hereby a major step towards the development of e-governance in Algeria. Yet, despite this noticeable improvement, the housing supply process remains very complex. This is mainly linked to the multi-sectoral character of the procedure, which requires the involvement of various actors and institutions. The objective of this paper is to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the National Housing File, which has been conceived as a decision support tool to housing supply. The paper examines the process through which data is gathered and evaluation of potential beneficiaries is made. It sheds light on the issues that hinder the right functioning of the National Housing File and delay the development of e-governance in an effective way.
