Administrationsplattformer

Administrationsplattformer, in English often called administration platforms, refer to software systems that coordinate and automate administrative processes across an organization. They provide shared services and data flows for functions such as human resources, finance, IT, facilities, asset management, and compliance. The goal is to standardize operations, increase transparency, and improve coordination between departments.

Core capabilities typically include identity and access management, workflow orchestration, records and document management, case and service management, and reporting and analytics. These platforms often feature role-based access control, audit trails, and policy enforcement to support governance and compliance. They enable centralized service catalogs, ticketing, and automated approvals, as well as data models and dashboards that give authorities and managers a single view of performance, risks, and bottlenecks.

Deployment models vary from on-premises to cloud or hybrid configurations, with emphasis on API-based integrations to connect with existing systems such as ERP, HR systems, and document repositories. Interoperability is supported by standards for authentication, data exchange, and security (for example RESTful APIs, SAML, OAuth, and data standards). Data management practices like master data management and retention policies are often integral.

Common use cases include public sector administrations seeking unified citizen or resident services, and large enterprises aiming to streamline back-office operations. Benefits typically include greater efficiency, standardized processes, improved auditability, and better policy compliance, while challenges may involve security risk, customization costs, vendor lock-in, and complex data migrations.
