Municipal sector
The municipal sector is increasingly employing technology to improve the quality of services, while keeping costs down.
Municipal procurements of IT solutions, office automation tools etc. may result in pressure on finances, regardless of the ROI of the acquisition. This applies both to the investment budget and to the expertise required to benefit from the acquisition.
Throughout the municipal sector, various different approaches to these problems are in evidence - organisational, through intermunicipal partnerships, financial and in other ways.
