Acquia and Drupal for Government
Transparency and Open Government
Openness, transparency and visibility. These three words are redefining the ways in which governments are structuring their administrations. The Open Source social publishing platform Drupal embraces these concepts and is turning them into a reality for government branches around the world. Drupal’s modular framework allows for a scalable and collaborative environment while maintaining the reliability that every government site depends on.
The Open Government Directive requires significant website innovation for all departments and agencies in order to meet numerous requirements. Drupal’s ecosystem of features, open standards and incorporation of semantic technologies provide the infrastructure to improve the transparency, participation and collaboration of any governmental site.
With Acquia and Drupal, we will propose a solution to meet your collaboration technology platform requirements as they fit with your OGD plan. Need to get your Drupal site up to OGD standards? Need help with Certification and Accreditation for Drupal within your Agency? Our team of Drupal experts will guide you every step of the way by providing the training and support necessary for setting up your Drupal site at [youragency].gov/open and ensuring that it is secure and scalable.
