Low-code for government

Government agencies are dedicated to digital innovation. Low-code enables the rapid creation of applications that streamline internal processes and enhance service delivery to citizens.

Improve your digital service delivery
with low-code

Municipalities and other government agencies face pressing IT challenges, such as the urgent need to enhance digital service delivery and modernize outdated systems. However, they often have limited resources to address these challenges. The solution? Low-code.

Shorter time-to-market

With low-code, you can build and test applications much faster. A project can be completed in a matter of weeks. Low-code is also cost-efficient, especially for large-scale projects.

Greater agility

Low-code improves flexibility, allowing you to easily adapt existing processes and add new functionalities to your applications, for example, when regulations and legislation change.

Integration and modernization

The power of low-code lies in its ability to seamlessly integrate a new application with your existing systems. It also enables the ongoing modernization of legacy applications.

Citizens expect user-friendly digital services

Citizens deserve an efficient, secure, and open digital government that prioritizes people with accessible and reliable service. Municipalities and other government organizations need to digitize their services to better meet these demands and improve operational efficiency. This necessitates a strategic implementation of technology.

Continuous changes in complex legislation

Government organizations are required to adhere to a diverse set of intricate laws and regulations, ranging from the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) to archiving and digital government legislation. While these regulations serve significant purposes, they often introduce bureaucratic processes. To improve digital agility, the presence of a flexible software landscape is vital.

Outdated IT systems and processes

Many government agencies and municipalities face the problem of outdated software. Additionally, they often struggle with managing complex IT environments that involve numerous applications. These challenges result in fragmented information, inefficient processes, and security risks. It is crucial for them to adopt an integrated approach to IT.

Our government solutions

Improve service delivery
with a self-service portal

Empower citizens and businesses through a self-service portal, providing round-the-clock access to relevant information and enabling them to independently handle tasks like permit and subsidy applications. Meanwhile, your staff will be relieved of administrative burdens. Utilizing low-code, you can swiftly create a secure portal that enhances service delivery to a superior level.

Boost your efficiency
with process optimization

Every government agency has recurring internal processes that are often far from efficient. "That's just how we do things around here." Does this sound familiar? No worries, as we excel at process optimization. With low-code applications, you can automate manual and error-prone tasks. Let’s increase the productivity of your employees.

Smart and sustainable urban management
with field service applications

From infrastructure to park maintenance, every municipality manages a vast database of assets. However, the accessibility of this data often falls short. What if you could gain valuable insights for long-term maintenance and receive timely notifications for necessary actions? Enhance the quality of your municipality through intelligent data enrichment using low-code technology.

What’s the best software for my government agency?

Choosing the right software can be a daunting process. You have to weigh functional requirements, budget constraints, and other factors. The main decision often comes down to selecting between off-the-shelf software or custom development. There are different vendors offering pre-built software solutions for government entities, but you can also opt to develop your own application.

What are the pros and cons of off-the-shelf software?

Off-the-shelf software enables quick and cost-effective implementation. However, every government agency has distinct processes that may not align with standard software. Even when software providers claim it is tailored for municipalities, it often includes unnecessary features or lacks crucial functionalities. Moreover, customization options are limited.

Many government organizations attempt to adapt their processes to fit the limitations of off-the-shelf packages. At our core, we firmly believe that technology should empower and enhance citizen service delivery, rather than impose constraints on it.

What are the pros and cons of custom development?

The primary advantage of custom software is its seamless alignment with user requirements. You are not reliant on a software vendor dictating which features you need. Instead, you have complete control over the features and design of the software.

Traditional software development involves manual coding using programming languages, which can be a complex and inflexible process. It often requires detailed specifications and extensive planning, leading to time inefficiencies. Given the dynamic nature of the government sector, with frequent changes in laws and regulations, the developed solution may not align with new requirements. Furthermore, attracting skilled programmers can be challenging and costly.

Fortunately, custom development doesn't have to be challenging. At House of low-code, we specialize in rapidly developing user-friendly customized applications that truly propel your government agency forward. We achieve this using a future-proof technology: low-code.

What is low-code development?

Low-code is a development approach that empowers you to create applications using visual building blocks and models. It provides a user-friendly graphical interface, hiding the complexities of programming code. By leveraging low-code, you can rapidly build tailored applications, seamlessly integrate new features, and often achieve cost savings compared to traditional software development.

What are the benefits of low-code?

Rapid development
Low-code accelerates the development of custom software, reducing project completion time from months to weeks.

Lower costs
Low-code development is cost-effective. It saves time and requires less expensive programming knowledge.

Increased agility
With low-code, you can quickly incorporate user feedback and promptly adapt to changes in laws and regulations.

Co-creation
Low-code empowers non-programmers to contribute to development, ensuring software that better meets user requirements.

Easy integration
The power of low-code lies in its ability to easily integrate a new application with your existing systems.

Legacy modernization
Outdated software often hampers productivity. With low-code, you can continuously modernize applications.
