Foundation, company form and tasks
The DZBW was founded in 1971 with the task of developing uniform data processing methods for the municipalities of Baden-Württemberg. The company has been active nationwide since the 1990s. The focus of the DZBW was on the development and permanent maintenance of standard software. Services support the user-oriented use of the software solutions.
The legal supervision of the data center lay with the Ministry of the Interior of Baden-Württemberg . The DZBW was part of the communal data processing network in Baden-Württemberg, together with the three regional data centers Communal Information Processing Reutlingen-Ulm (KIRU), Communal Information Processing Baden-Franconia (KIVBF) and Communal Data Processing Region Stuttgart (KDRS). The cooperation between data centers and DZBW was regulated in the Baden-Württemberg law on cooperation in automated data processing (ADVZG) .
In addition, the DZ Entwicklungs- und Vertriebs-GmbH (DZ EVG) was founded in 1998, which took over the distribution of DZ products outside of Baden-Württemberg.
Products
With its Kommunalmaster® products, the DZBW covered a wide range of municipal application areas. The software solutions ranged from finance and personnel management to e-government , residents and motor vehicles to trade registers , immigration and schools as well as applications for the environmental sector.
Almost all of the cities and communities in Baden-Württemberg use one or more software developments from the DZBW. In addition to municipal software, the DZBW also developed software for the federal states and the federal government. It was one of the market leaders for municipal application software and one of the largest SAP partners in the public sector in Germany. The strategic development platform of the DZBW was based on 2 pillars: Java - SEU and SAP technology.
