Authorities will soon have access to pre-programmed modules via a platform from which digital applications can be created quickly and easily. "We can offer our authorities and all other states and municipalities software modules so that not every administration has to develop the same functions," said Jan Pörksen, Head of Hamburg's Senate Chancellery. The goal is end-to-end digitization. Citizens should be able to submit their concerns online and internal processing should be digitally possible everywhere in future. "Certain functions such as a register query or the creation of notices that every administration needs will be available as individual modules when required." The German government is funding "Modul-F" as part of the Online Access Act (OZG) which requires all administrative services in Germany to be digitized by late 2022.
