Save hours a week with automatic agenda publishing

Herlev Municipality has automated the process of making ready-made agendas available on the website, minimizing the amount of manual work by several hours. At the same time, they have given citizens the opportunity to subscribe to the committees that suit them.

Herlev Municipality found that their current process for publishing agendas had room for improvement, as citizens requested features such as the ability to subscribe to news about individual committees that were not possible in the previous solution. The municipality also wanted to make agenda and minutes data from FirstAgenda Prepare available on the website faster and more efficiently than before.

With FirstAgenda Publication , the municipality has now cut hours of manual work from this process and increased the functionality of agenda publishing.

Simple solution makes a big impact

The employees at Herlev Municipality had been recommended FirstAgenda Publication by colleagues from other municipalities, but they didn't expect the solution to make such a big impression on them.

"The platform caught our eye from the start with a clear and functional design that seemed very intuitive to use," says Aleksandra Novovic, Executive Secretary at Herlev Municipality.

Implementation was fast and efficient, and in cases where features didn't work or took a long time to implement, the response was prompt.

"Things that didn't work were quickly fixed, and FirstAgenda was very kind to update the site regularly when there were technical issues," says Aleksandra Novovic.

FirstAgenda Publication has made our work with agendas much easier. We no longer have to fiddle with the process, as the system puts everything on the website itself.

Agenda publishing made easy

FirstAgenda Publication has now fully replaced the old system, and according to Aleksandra Novovic, the results have been positive for both employees and citizens.

"It has been surprisingly easy to start using FirstAgenda Publication. Once all the options were set up in our system and we got started, it seemed incredibly easy," says Aleksandra Novovic.

FirstAgenda Publication allows you to search for specific committees and sort them by date, and the relevant data is automatically uploaded to the municipality's systems through the platform. At the same time, citizens have the option to subscribe to the committees they are interested in, so they automatically receive notifications when new information is posted.

"We save a lot of manual work and time posting the agendas, and citizens are very happy with the subscription feature. We used to get a lot of requests to send different minutes and agendas to certain citizens, but since FirstAgenda Publication has been set up, we haven't received a single one," says Aleksandra Novovic.

Employees share citizens' enthusiasm

Herlev Municipality's employees have welcomed FirstAgenda Publication, where the responsible employees are fully familiar with the system. At the same time, several employees have signed up to receive notifications from the system, and Aleksandra Novovic is pleased with the positive reception.

"FirstAgenda Publication has made our work with agendas much easier. We no longer have to fiddle with the process, as the system posts everything on the website itself. The solution is all-encompassing, and we save several hours of work per week," concludes Aleksandra Novovic.
