Government Website Builder – "Your Region" Platform

Problem and implemented solution

The modern world cannot function without websites for government bodies, medical and educational institutions, and executive agencies. These sites are crucial for citizens to complete tasks such as document processing, obtaining important information, scheduling medical appointments, and addressing family matters—there are hundreds of thousands of scenarios. Requirements for such websites vary by country. For example, in Russia alone, there are more than 50 mandatory and recommended parameters based on the type of institution. Nonetheless, there are universal principles that enhance user experience: a clear interface, robust personal data protection, a comprehensive list of required documents for oversight bodies, inclusivity, and a consistent format for information that is easy to understand and navigate. We developed the versatile platform "Your Region" – a site builder for government institutions of any level. It has been utilized for over 6 years in a region with a population exceeding 9 million, hosting about 150 websites. The "Your Region" builder is now being trialed in 3 additional regions with a total population of 12 million. The "Your Region" platform provides: The ability to create a versatile, secure website ecosystem using one platform Cost savings in development and technical support A standardized design and functionality that is clear and convenient for users, regardless of their location A user-friendly resource for content creation and administration with regular update capabilities Effective management of citizen communications With the 7 templates provided by the platform, it's possible to deploy an unlimited number of websites that comply with all required inclusivity, accessibility, and cybersecurity standards.
