The path toward digital administration remains challenging, yet at the same time offers enormous opportunities. Bernd Schlömer, State Secretary for Digitalization in the Ministry for Infrastructure and Digital Affairs of the State of Saxony-Anhalt and Commissioner of the State Government for Information Technology (CIO), was able to see for himself on Monday in the LegalTech Lab of the Just Transition Center (JTC) what innovation potentials are already emerging today.
As part of the exchange, Prof. Dr. Azar Aliyev, scientific director of the JTC, and Dr. habil. Konstantin Branovitskiy, head of the C2 team, presented current research projects. Two central undertakings were at the forefront, which can sustainably modernize legal work and public administration. On the one hand, an AI-supported guidelines generator – a no-code platform for the efficient and error-free creation of administrative guidelines. On the other hand, the digitalization of enforcement – a project intended to simplify and accelerate processes.
During a subsequent discussion round, strategic perspectives of administrative digitalization in Saxony-Anhalt were discussed. Particularly in focus were potential fields of application for the guidelines generator in the public sector as well as its role within a future-oriented digital strategy of the state administration.
Important impulses were also provided by Prof. Dr. Thomas Hoffman from TalTech University in Tallinn. He offered insights into questions of data standardization and explained the Estonian model of a comprehensively digitally networked state. At the center of his contribution stood X-Road, the key technology for secure and efficient data exchange between authorities and private actors.
The approaches presented offered valuable points of orientation in a concluding discussion round for the further development of digital administration at the state, federal, and EU level.
