What the buyer is looking for
The project concerns the introduction of a future-proof, modular, scalable and extensible portal platform for digital network customer processes of the distribution system operator Salzburg Netz GmbH in Austria.

The focus is on product maturity, intuitive user guidance and modern UI/UX, configurability by the specialist area, open integration capability, information security, data protection, accessibility, a viable operating model and the sustainable further development capability of the solution.
