Public services are under enormous pressure. On the one hand the
demands on them are growing steadily, however on the other massive cuts
are being made to the budgets required. According to a study entitled
“Public Trend” conducted by Mummert Consulting, 85% of IT managers
consider the lack of budgetary funds to be their greatest challenge.
The digitalisation of many work processes should also go hand-in-hand
with an improvement in IT security. Decision-makers within public
authorities rate information technology security almost as highly as
improved administration processes.

Trier-Saarburg district council
The Trier-Saarburg district council will migrate almost entirely (95%) to IGEL thin clients by the end of 2007
The outlook is good for the Trier-Saarburg administrative district in southwest Germany: above-average growth rates, low unemployment and a good infrastructure characterize this historic administrative district, geographically the third largest in Rhineland Palatinate, with around 140,000 inhabitants. In order for this to remain the case, the district's administrative authorities, which comprise seven collective municipalities with four towns and 99 local municipalities, are looking for efficient IT management using state-of-the-art desktops.

Duisburg City Library
The Duisburg City Library uses IGEL Thin Clients to provide its resource-saving research and Internet workstations
The most frequently visited educational and cultural institution in Duisburg is the City Library. Every year, more than 150,000 people use the facilities consisting of a central library, six larger regional libraries, seven smaller district libraries and two mobile libraries to make their selections from a comprehensive collection of knowledge including almost 800,000 media items. Supported by the various locations, the intention now is to push forward the widespread introduction of the Internet for all strata of the population. For this purpose, today’s Duisburg City Library offers as a matter of course modern Internet workstations as well as support and target-group oriented training for practical handling of this new medium.

Berlin Director of Public Prosecution
A thin time for the Berlin DPP
The extensive introduction of server-based computing architecture has allowed the Berlin Director of Public Prosecution‘s office to increase the number of individual workstations by 50% without increasing administration costs. Two years ago, the Director of Public Prosecution’s (DPP’s) Office in Berlin embarked on an ambitious rationalisation project for systematically switching its IT-infrastructure system to server-based computing.
