COMMON GROUND
From Idea to Innovation for Municipalities
Municipalities want to innovate, but often get stuck on complicated procedures and technical requirements. Common Ground offers an open, accessible route from idea to working concept – fast, secure, and without unnecessary barriers.
Open to Innovation
Small businesses without ISO certification actively get the chance to develop solutions.
Stronger Together
Municipalities, chain partners, and market parties work together on flexible, future-proof ICT.
Inclusive Community
New ideas and technologies get space, regardless of formal certifications.
From Idea to Working Concept
A practical roadmap for rapid innovation without unnecessary barriers
Start with a concrete question
Together with involved staff and residents, bring the problem or wish into sharp focus. Think small: a clearly defined problem is quicker to solve and easier to test.
Gather ideas and determine the best approach together
Organize a short brainstorming session with colleagues, chain partners, and – if possible – local entrepreneurs or residents. Use existing knowledge platforms and share your question via the community.
Choose a flexible, reliable partner
Look for a partner who works according to Common Ground principles: open, modular, and focused on collaboration. At EasyData, you always work with a dedicated contact person and get direct access to innovative, secure solutions.
Work together on an initial concept
Start with a short, practical exploration: what’s technically possible and what will it deliver? Use existing building blocks and open standards to quickly create a prototype.
Test and collect feedback
Have a small group of users try out the concept. Collect feedback and decide together whether and how the concept should be further developed.
Scale up and implement
Does the concept work? Then make it available to a broader group of users. Thanks to the modular approach, you can easily expand or link with other systems.
Keep improving and collaborating
Stay in dialogue with users and partners. New wishes or improvements can be quickly addressed thanks to our flexible approach.
