Case study

A Coruña needed a 21st-century city council

The City Council of A Coruña, immersed in a digital transformation process, continued to manage thousands of paper files and depended on systems that did not interoperate with each other.

Committed to well-being and inclusion, the City Council collaborated with Virtual Desk to modernize its Social Services, moving towards a more efficient, accessible and people-centered model, and complementarily strengthening coordination with health sectors when necessary.

Falta de interoperabilidad

A Coruña needed a modern and flexible platform that would allow it to evolve its processes and adapt to organizational and legislative changes.

Main challenges:

  • Annual costs exceeding €1.5M due to manual processes and outdated tools.
  • 85% prolonged delays, creating bottlenecks in social care.
  • 100% lack of interoperability between municipal systems.
  • Limited interdepartmental coordination, hindering work between Social Services and other municipal areas.
  • Diverse population: need to cater to very different profiles, from elderly people to vulnerable groups.
  • Equitable access: ensuring that services effectively reach all neighborhoods, not just the city center.

Virtual Desk developed a integral Single Social History solution, designed to unify information, improve coordination, and digitize all key processes.

Main components of the solution:

  • Unified cloud platform: Integration of all municipal social information into a single system accessible in real time.
  • Automation of essential processes: Intelligent management of appointments, resources, referrals and case tracking, reducing administrative burden and processing times.
  • Accessible and inclusive interfaces: Designed for professionals and citizens, with a special focus on universal accessibility.
  • Interoperability with other municipal and regional systems, facilitating coordination when additional health information was required, without mixing areas.
  • GDPR compliance: Security and protection of sensitive data, guaranteeing privacy and traceability.
