Abstract:
The Project "TransReq" focused on front office design, back office design and strategic controlling in public administrations. For this purpose, information systems, methods, and other instruments had been developed at the European Research Center for Information Systems (ERCIS) in other projects. In the "TransReq" project these results were transferred and extended based on a previously established research network of Brazilian and German universities.
A major requirement for the successful transfer of technology was an analysis and comparison of public administrations in Brazil and Germany. Consecutively, three software prototypes that had been developed in Germany were adjusted to fit with the Brazilian conditions. Finally, the software prototypes were installed in a selected region in order to evaluate and demonstrate their utility.The research partners involved in this project were the public administration of Emsdetten, Münster, Rio do Sul, Florianopolis, Ituporanga, the city association Associação dos Municípios do Alto Vale do Itajai (AMAVI), the district Warendorf and the local computer center of Münster (Citeq).
