Ideas and project platform for municipalities

Already in 2017 we developed for the Municipal Community Office for Administrative Management (KGSt) based on Liferay. The successful collaboration now entered the second round. For the customer, we created a central platform for municipalities called KGSt-Kommunect digital.

An online portal should be created to facilitate networking and active collaboration between municipalities and those responsible for digitisation. The requirement was to be able to create projects that could then be found by other users in an internal search and thus facilitate a simplified exchange. KGSt-Kommunect digital also enables those responsible for digitization to share ideas and build partnerships. Thanks to the responsive design, the solution can be displayed first-class on all devices, making the processing of projects easy to handle even when on the go.

The Function of the KGSt® Community Platform

  • Implementation of an faceted Elasticsearch
  • Social Networking-Function

The implementation took place within six months on the basis of Liferay DXP 7. 1. This enabled the connection to the existing Liferay EE 6. 2 system of the existing website. The integrated faceted Elasticsearch makes it possible to easily find projects and filter them by search terms. With the help of a wizard, entered data can be cached and the visibility of projects and ideas can be controlled. Thanks to the new social networking functions there is now the possibility to follow and comment.
