Ideas and project platform for municipalities

Back in 2017, we developed a solution for the Municipal Association for Administrative Management (KGSt) based on Liferay. The successful collaboration has now entered its second phase. We created a central platform for municipalities called KGSt-Kommunect digital for the customer.

Shortcuts to the project

An online portal was to be created to simplify networking and active collaboration between municipalities and their digitalization managers. The requirement was to be able to create projects that could then be found by other users in an internal search, thus facilitating exchange. KGSt-Kommunect digital also enables those responsible for digitization to share ideas and build partnerships. Thanks to its responsive design, the solution can be displayed perfectly on all devices, making it easy to work on projects even when on the move.

Our approach

  1. User involvement & agile development

    Early involvement of local authorities as future users in the agile implementation phase.

  2. Technical implementation of the platform

    Development of the KGSt®-Kommunect platform based on Liferay DXP 7.1 Connection to the existing Liferay EE 6.2 system.

  3. Search and filter concept

    Integration of a faceted Elasticsearch for structured and user-friendly project search.

  4. Project plant design

    Development of an assistant for multi-stage, structured recording and maintenance of projects and ideas.

  5. User interaction features

    Implementation of social networking features (e.g., commenting, following).

  6. Hosting & Operation

    Hosting of the platform by neusta infrastructure services.
