Local authorities are sitting on a goldmine of data, but for most, that mine remains largely untapped.

Local authorities are sitting on a goldmine of data, but for most, that mine remains largely untapped.
The VNG (Association of Netherlands Municipalities) already said it: in an era in which data play a crucial role in policy-making, service delivery and decision-making, a well-considered data strategy is essential for municipalities.
That sounds logical, but the reality is that many policy officers still spend hours manually collecting data from separate Excel files, fragmented systems and reports that are already outdated by the time they are ready.
Meanwhile, the same municipalities have to make decisions about:
Which district needs extra attention?
How many homes will actually be completed this year?
How far are we with the energy transition?
Are the invoices from our waste processor correct?
These are not small questions. They are challenges whose consequences residents feel directly.
At Clappform we believe that data-driven working is not a luxury for municipalities. It should be accessible to every municipality, every policy officer, every environmental coordinator who makes decisions every day on the basis of incomplete information.
That is why we build applications that bring together data from different sources in one central place: visual, up to date and directly applicable. Whether it concerns liveability in neighbourhoods, progress in housing construction, making the housing stock more sustainable or mapping waste streams: the insights must be available to the people who can act on them.
Data-driven working is not an end destination. It is a way of working you can start now.
Curious how other municipalities are already getting started with this?

How we make an impact with leading clients
Housing Tracking System - Municipality of Arnhem
The municipality of Arnhem uses Clappform's Housing Tracking System and CRM to monitor the progress of the energy transition. This provides clear insights into insulation measures, subsidy opportunities, and sustainability initiatives at the building level, ensuring better alignment between policy and implementation.
Housing Development Monitor - Municipalities in the Alkmaar Region
For the six municipalities in the Alkmaar region, Clappform offers the Housing Development Monitor and the PPM (Public-Private Monitor) to track the progress of Housing Development Projects. This provides municipalities with up-to-date insight into hard and soft planning capacity, realization, and regional cooperation.
Data Governance - Province of North Brabant
The Province of North Brabant uses Clappform's Data Governance platform to centrally organise data quality and data management. The platform provides insights into the governance structure, monitors data flows, and supports the safeguarding of reliable and up-to-date information.
Integrated Neighbourhood Scan - Municipality of Veldhoven
Clappform is conducting a neighbourhood scan in Cobbeek and D’Ekker in partnership with the municipality of Veldhoven to improve the living environment for elderly residents. Data and resident feedback provide insights into social cohesion, mobility, community meeting spaces, and the quality of the physical environment.
Digital Twin - Municipality of Alkmaar
Clappform is working within a consortium on the Digital Twin of Alkmaar, part of the Network of Local Digital Twins (NLDT). The project supports data-driven decision-making and forward-looking urban policy, using open standards such as OGC and Common Ground.
Control over the entire waste chain - Den Bosch
For Afvalstoffendienst 's-Hertogenbosch, Clappform integrates all systems related to waste collection and processing: from ERP and vehicle navigation to weighing systems and recycling centres. All these sources converge into a single lakehouse, a central repository where all data is stored and prepared for use. This generates reliable dashboards, operational workflow applications, and APIs that drive the daily operations of the entire organisation, from the back office to the recycling centre.
Data Management platform - Data Safe House
Clappform has developed a new Data Management platform for Data Safe House. The platform simplifies data entry, verification, and validation, making them more transparent. Users can centrally manage data and feedback, while interactive charts provide insight into energy consumption, emissions, and sustainability projects. European software and Dutch data storage guarantee data sovereignty.
