City-Connect : Modernization of municipal sevrices

All the versions of this article: [English] [français]


As part of a modernization project aimed at improving information sharing and digitizing certain administrative services, we have implemented an intuitive mobile application based on City Connect. This solution provides a direct and interactive communication channel with citizens.

Challenge

  • Expand the distribution of information: reach a wider audience and offer up-to-date news.
  • Create a close relationship: encourage interaction and feedback between the city hall and its residents.
  • Digitize services: enable incident reporting or scheduling an appointment with an elected official, without requiring a physical visit.
  • Offer interactive communication: push notifications, direct contact (email or phone), etc.
  • Provide real-time updates: alerts, calendars, and constantly refreshed news.

Solution Implemented

  • SPIP Integration and Dedicated Plugins:
    • Development of plugins for the API to secure and organize data exchanges.
    • A simplified administrative interface for staff, allowing them to manage news, events, and digital procedures.
  • IONIC Application:
    • Designed for iOS and Android, featuring responsive design and a mobile-friendly user experience.
    • Instant access to municipal information: news, events calendar, directory, interactive map, etc.
    • Interactive features: push notifications, contact forms, appointment scheduling, incident reporting, and more.

Results Achieved

  • Strengthened proximity: residents now have a simple tool for staying informed and engaging with the local authority.
  • Instant distribution: the municipal team can provide real-time updates on urgent news or major events.
  • Centralized management: staff administer content via SPIP, avoiding any redundancy or inconsistency between the website and the app.
  • Improved request handling: through digitization, incident reporting and appointment scheduling are faster and more transparent.
  • Long-term adaptability: thanks to the modular architecture (API + IONIC app), the solution can evolve alongside future technological developments or new features.
