E-Government gains increasing importance. More and more inhabitants and companies wish a comprehensive offering of online services from the administration. As a progressive canton, Basle-City wants to comply with these wishes by step by step making all important administrative services available through the internet.

The Central Information Services (ZID) provides all IT Services for the administration of Basle-City. The department E-Government is in charge of the E-Government and is the contact point for companies. This department coordinates the further development and the future design of the access for companies with the concerned administrations and IT services. Thus, the department E-Government simplifies the communication between the economy and the administration.
