Case Study: Hansel modernizes public procurement notices with Innofactor

Hansel modernizes Hilma for 500 suppliers with Innofactor

Hansel, a public procurement unit in Finland, faced the challenge of modernizing its technically obsolete Hilma online service for publishing procurement notices. The service, in use since 2007, required an overhaul to update its functions and improve usability for both procurers and bidders. To address this, Hansel selected vendor Innofactor to lead the reform.

Innofactor implemented an agile solution built entirely on modern Azure PaaS technologies using DevOps protocols. The new Hilma service makes it easier to publish and find notices and allows for better data analysis. A Hansel representative reported that the project progressed on schedule and the collaboration was easy. The improved service was successfully launched in January 2020 with ongoing development.
