Garan Territoires, capability 02

Built to still work in six years.

Open technologies, an editorial back office your teams can run alone, every regulatory publication requirement handled natively, and no lock-in of any kind.

How we build

No black box, no hostage situation.

The most expensive part of a public website is rarely the build. It is being unable to leave the supplier who built it.

Open technologies only

No proprietary platform you can only run through us. The stack is open source and widely known, so another supplier could take over tomorrow if you wanted them to.

You own everything

Source code, database, media library and documentation belong to you and are handed over at delivery, not held as leverage at renewal time.

Fast on a bad connection

Pages built to load quickly on a phone with poor reception in a rural area, not just on fibre in an office. Light pages also mean a lighter environmental footprint.

A back office your team can run

Your communication officer publishes an article, adds an event or updates a page without calling us. Training and written documentation are part of the delivery.

Regulatory features

The obligations, built into the product.

These are not optional modules quoted separately at the end of the project. They are part of what a public sector website is.

Publication of official acts

Since July 2022, authorities of 3,500 inhabitants and above make their administrative acts public online rather than on a physical board, and smaller ones may choose to. We ship a register that publishes deliberations, decrees and council minutes with a reliable publication date, searchable and archived.

Open data

Authorities above 3,500 inhabitants employing more than 50 staff must publish their public datasets. We wire the exports into the site and feed the national open data portal, in standard machine readable formats.

Accessible documents

A perfectly accessible page linking to an unreadable scanned PDF fails the test. We set up the pipeline and the editorial rules so documents you publish are accessible too.

Legal pages & GDPR

Legal notices, privacy policy, cookie management with a compliant consent banner, and the processing records your data protection officer will ask for.

Procurement profile

Your own tender notices published on the site, archived and linked to your buyer profile platform, so suppliers find your procedures.

Eco-design

Optimised media, restrained scripts and efficient hosting, following the general eco-design framework for digital services rather than claiming a label we do not hold.

Modules

Services residents actually use.

Pick what your authority needs. Each module is built to the same accessibility and security standard as the rest of the site.

Online procedures

Civil status requests, permits, declarations, connected to FranceConnect where relevant.

Council & official acts

Agendas, minutes, deliberations and decrees, published with the legal timestamp.

Alerts & notifications

Emergency alerts, works notices and closures pushed by email, SMS or web notification.

Bookings & registrations

School catering, extracurricular activities, room and equipment reservations.

Reporting tool

Residents report a pothole, a broken light or fly-tipping, with photo and geolocation.

Local directory

Associations, businesses, healthcare professionals and public facilities, searchable and mapped.

Agenda & news

Events, cultural programme and municipal news, with newsletter and social syndication.

Urban planning

Local plan documents, public inquiries and consultation files made findable and downloadable.

Procurement profile

Your own tender notices published and archived, linked to your buyer profile.

Integrations

Connected to what you already run.

We do not ask you to replace working software. We connect the site to it, so residents get one entry point and your services keep their tools.

FranceConnect

Identity federation so residents sign in with credentials they already have.

Online procedure engines

Existing national and regional procedure platforms embedded rather than rebuilt.

Payment

Connection to the public sector payment channel for fees and municipal services.

Citizen relationship tools

Requests and reports routed into whatever back office your services already use.

Alerts by SMS & email

Emergency and works notifications, with resident opt-in and consent tracking.

Mapping & urban planning

Local plan layers, facility maps and geolocated reporting, on open mapping data.

Business software

Bridges to your existing civil status, school catering or booking software.

Analytics without tracking

Audience measurement configured to run without consent, so you keep your numbers.

Reversibility

Leaving us should be easy.

At any point in the contract, and at the end of it, you can request a full export: source code in a repository you control, database dump, media library, and the technical documentation to redeploy it elsewhere. It is a contractual clause, and we test it during the project rather than discovering on the last day that it does not work.

Source code

In a repository you own, from day one

Content & data

Database and media, standard formats

Documentation

Enough for another team to redeploy
