Everyday life and contact with citizens and agencies demonstrate the need for modern and unified tools and methods of accessing information. In this context, the Municipality, with a view to improve the efficiency of its services and better serve the citizen, invests in the creation of the necessary digital infrastructures through which the following objectives will be achieved:

  • the enrichment of digital systems with new content
  • the development of new applications
  • development of structures for interaction with users
  • the provision of specialized / structured content
  • providing support to services to meet users’ requests for corrective / complementary interventions
  • expanding the base of internal users of the systems

The infrastructure will be implemented through an information system using free open-source software (FOSS) and with advanced internet services, following standards and rules of interoperability.
