PROBLEM
The Pinhais City Hall needed an effective online content publishing tool. The website previously used made communication with the population of the city via the internet ineffective and not at all optimized. The communication department was not able to quickly make communication flow within the structure of the city hall and reach the population.
Not only that, there was a need for a full-time technician to update the pages, which were static, and it was not possible to distribute the content publication among the sectors of the municipality.
SOLUTION
Visionnaire quickly developed and launched a new website using Visionnaire WebPublication, a Content Management System (CMS). The overload in the IT department has decreased, and the communications department has managed to quickly update information for the population. Today, with WebPublication, publications are distributed in a number of departments, without the need for a dedicated technical person for this.
RESULTS
With its new portal, the Pinhais City Hall has improved the integration and communication of its departments, and currently the communication sector has only one professional with knowledge in HTML and CSS. The renewed site can also show public works (executed and in progress). Subsequently, the city was appointed with the highest management approval index in Brazil, according to a survey conducted by Instituto Paraná Pesquisa (State of Paraná Research Institute).
TECHNOLOGY
This demand required a Content Management System (CMS), because, due to the large volume of information and the need for constant updating, it would not be possible to develop a static website. That is why Visionnaire WebPublication was used, since it is a solution for portals of all sizes.
Other technologies used were: integration with other systems through Java language (JEE, currently Jakarta EE), Windows operating system, HTML5, CSS3, Apache Tomcat, XML, XSL, XSLT, JSP, Javascript/Ajax/DWR, JQuery and Microsoft SQL Server database, IIS WEB Server, UML (Unified Modeling Language) modeling, using MVC standard.
Detailed problem:
Pinhais is one of the fastest growing cities in Paraná, in addition to being among the 100 best cities in Brazil to enterprise and invest. However, at the beginning of the decade of 2010, the presence of the city hall on the internet was still based on old concepts of static pages. Because of this, the representatives of the municipality carried out a public bid for the development and update of a new version of the city hall website that used modern web concepts.
The presence of the Pinhais City Hall on the internet, until then, required a full-time technician who was responsible for updating the static pages, which, in addition to overloading such professional, did not allow the distribution of content publication. Not only this, one of the main priorities of the municipal administration was communicating with the population of the city via the internet, something that the website of the time did not allow to perform in an optimized way. There was also the problem that the communication department was not able to quickly make communication flow within the structure of the city hall and reach the population.
One of the main prerequisites of the public notice was the existence of a publication tool that managed all the contents of the city hall, with which the departments could collaborate in the management of the contents.
Detailed solution:
Visionnaire was qualified as the best option and quickly developed and launched the new website of the Pinhais City hall. It was designed in partnership with an advertising agency, and the entire technological infrastructure was developed by Visionnaire.
With the CMS (Content Management System) solution, the overload in the IT department decreased, and the communication department is able to update information for the population quickly. Today, a publication is carried out in a distributed way in the several departments. Journalists publish the content using Visionnaire WebPublication, not requiring the presence of a dedicated technical person for this.
