There are significant benefits to be gained when communities use data to engage citizens, deliver services, and share resources. Civically minded teams including governments, commercial partners, university researchers and NGOs around the world are working together to deliver these benefits. OpenCommons provides a platform for this collaboration.

Current community services are held back by two challenges. First, many current information and communication technology deployments are based on custom systems that are not interoperable, portable between communities, extensible, or cost-effective.

This knowledge base for municipal technology projects serves as a central repository for information, best practices, and lessons learned from previous projects. Its purpose is to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of technology implementation within a municipality by reducing the time and resources spent on repetitive tasks, promoting collaboration and knowledge sharing, and reducing the risk of project failures.
