Trusted digital workspaces for every tier of public administration
openDesk has evolved from the “Sovereign Workplace,” an initiative originally brought to life by the Federal Ministry of the Interior and Community.
openDesk gives civil servants more control over their digital tools and enables the public sector to react more flexibly to changing requirements.
With openDesk, federal, state and local agencies get a vendor-neutral, all-in-one office solution that works in any browser, on any device.
