Challenges

Typical hurdles in Public Sector projects

2

Budget discipline

Fiscal years, appropriation rules, fund management — strict rules that shape project control.

3

Long approval processes

Multi-stage decisions, political alignment, committee schedules.

4

Documentation

File-duty, audit-proof, accountable during audit checks and FOI requests.

Use Cases

Three Public Project Scenarios

From OZG service to IT modernization — PathHub structures procurement-compliant pipelines.

OZG Service / Online Government Service

Multi-phase project from demand analysis to EfA reuse. Stakeholders (department, IT, state CIO, federal entity).

→ Procurement-compliant plan in 1 day
Agency IT Modernization

Migration legacy system to cloud. EVB-IT contract modules, BSI baseline, data migration, training. Risks (complaint, lock-in, data loss).

→ 40 % fewer procurement risks
E-File / DMS Rollout

Phase plan including stakeholder mapping (case worker, staff council, DPO), pilot agency, rollout wave.

→ Hypercare phase not forgotten
Example

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Yes — for public IT projects PathHub auto-generates phases for tendering (EU threshold, EU publication, e-procurement), including typical risks like complaint procedures and review applications.
Yes — OZG services are generated including reuse phase (EfA principle), FIM modeling, FITKO coordination and federal IT architecture. Stakeholders state + federal + municipality are scheduled.
Typical for public sector: GDPR, BSI baseline, BSI minimum standard for cloud, Online Access Act, accessibility (BGG), anti-corruption, possibly security clearance.
PathHub knows EVB-IT contract types (creation, maintenance, cloud, service). At contract award the type and corresponding clauses are integrated into the phase plan.
Yes — multi-workspace per agency/project. Global view across all projects with status, procurement, budget. Per workspace own stakeholder list and roles.
Own phases for pilot (1-3 agencies) and rollout (all agencies). AI suggests typical pilot success criteria and go/no-go gates. Stakeholders staff council + DPO are mandatorily scheduled at rollout.
Yes — audit phases including documentation duties (procurement memo, contracts, receipts) are auto-set up. Audit-proof documentation as PDF export.
Yes — municipalities especially benefit because central PMO usually doesn't exist. Pro plan (€19/mo) covers 3 parallel projects. EU hosting + GDPR are mandatory — all satisfied.
