Case Studies

This page contains over 100 case studies which provide examples of good practices with strong emphasis on the use of OSS by public administrations. One of the main goals of the case studies is to enable the reader to draw conclusions relevant to their own environment. That is why the case studies focus on topics such as business considerations, technical aspects, legal and cost implications, cost models, and best practice in the context of OSS in public administrations.
