Digital websites for federal, state and local authorities
- legally compliant, barrier-free and sustainably operable
Websites for public institutions
Barrier-free. Safe. Fit for the future.
Digital websites are a key communication tool for authorities and public institutions today. Citizens expect comprehensible content, easy access to information and services and reliable, barrier-free use - regardless of the end device or individual restrictions.
We support public institutions in designing, implementing and further developing modern, legally compliant and sustainable websites. In doing so, we combine expert advice with technical implementation - tailored to the requirements of the public sector.

A website for public institutions is not a campaign
- but a digital infrastructure.
Flexible, secure and customizable
The technical implementation of a website for public institutions must meet high standards: The focus is on security, scalability, maintainability and integration capability. We implement websites for public institutions using various technologies - depending on your specifications, IT strategies and framework conditions.
We provide technology-neutral advice and take existing IT specifications, framework agreements and strategic decisions into account from the outset.
Possible technical approaches include
- Content management systems such as WordPress, SharePoint or TYPO3 - including with the Government Site Builder (GSB)
- Individual web applications, e.g. based on C# / ASP.NET, Laravel or other enterprise technologies
- Connection of existing specialist procedures and IT systems
- Hosting & operating models according to official specifications
Sicherheit und Compliance spielen im öffentlichen Umfeld eine zentrale Rolle. Dazu zählen unter anderem DSGVO-Konformität, Rollen- und Rechtekonzepte, Protokollierung, nachvollziehbare Dokumentation sowie der Betrieb in Deutschland oder der EU. Je nach Anforderung berücksichtigen wir außerdem BSI-nahe Vorgaben und behördliche Sicherheitskonzepte.
Government Site Builder (TYPO3) als bewährte Lösung
Für viele Behörden ist der Government Site Builder (GSB) auf Basis von TYPO3 eine bewährte Grundlage für barrierefreie, sichere und wartbare Websites. Wir realisieren Websites auf Wunsch konform zum Government Site Builder, inklusive Strukturvorgaben, Barrierefreiheit nach BITV / WCAG sowie behördlicher Betriebsanforderungen.
Gleichzeitig setzen wir – je nach Vorgabe – auch andere Plattformen ein und zeigen bewusst Alternativen zu proprietären Lizenzmodellen auf. Lösungen werden so konzipiert, dass keine unnötigen Herstellerabhängigkeiten entstehen und vermeidbare Lizenzkosten langfristig ausgeschlossen werden.
Open to technology
Independent of manufacturers and fixed system specifications
Adaptable to existing IT
Consideration of existing systems and framework conditions
No vendor lock-in
Long-term flexibility in operation and further development
Accessibility according to BITV / WCAG
Implementation in accordance with applicable legal requirements
Projekte im öffentlichen Umfeld – so arbeiten wir
Projekte im öffentlichen Umfeld haben meist viele Beteiligte und klare formale Anforderungen. Typisch sind eine abgestimmte Ziel- und Anforderungsklärung, die frühe Einbindung von IT, Datenschutz und Informationssicherheit sowie eine nachvollziehbare Dokumentation.
Je nach Rahmenvertrag, Vergabeweg und internen Freigaben unterstützen wir bei Leistungsbeschreibungen, Nachweisen und einer abnahmefähigen Umsetzung. Am Ende stehen nicht nur Design und Technik, sondern auch eine saubere Übergabe, Schulung und ein Betriebskonzept, das im Alltag funktioniert, regulatorische Anforderungen erfüllt und keine einseitigen Abhängigkeiten schafft.
