Municipal halls, equipment pooled between departments, committee schedules: local authorities face a double constraint — sovereignty requirements now written in black and white, and budgets that rule out paying for each room or each building as yet another billed “resource”.
In France, the “cloud au centre” doctrine, the SecNumCloud framework and the SREN law of 21 May 2024 govern public bodies' use of clouds subject to extraterritorial jurisdictions.
The circular of 5 July 2021, updated on 31 May 2023, requires French administrations to host sensitive data on SecNumCloud-qualified clouds, immune to extraterritorial legislation. A schedule that stays inside your information system never enters that debate: it simply is not outsourced.
Law No. 2024-449 on securing and regulating the digital space tightens the rules on public bodies' use of clouds subject to non-European jurisdictions. Fewer outbound flows means fewer analyses to produce — and fewer dependencies to justify.
A per-person software licence, with public pricing and no booking data hosted by the vendor: the tender file shrinks — no hosting annex and no reversibility plan for the schedules, they never leave the authority.
Town hall, community centre, gymnasium: each hall is a calendar; requests from departments and associations go through your authorised staff (administrator role), who accept or decline.
Projectors, vehicles, marquees, sound systems: unlimited resources, no inventory cost — pooling does not inflate the invoice.
The client is lean and verifiable: no trackers, no CDN, no hidden outbound calls — your technical teams can see it for themselves, in the spirit of digital public procurement.
For your DPO and your CISO: the vendor holds only the authority's account (organisation, e-mail addresses, licence, hashed device fingerprints). The record of processing shrinks accordingly — the compliance sheet in the customer area provides its exact, dated inventory.
The per-person model changes an authority's economics: 30 booking staff cost the same for 3 halls or for 40 buildings, because the resource is never billed. Adding the function hall, the minibus or the sound system triggers no contract amendment — where a per-space model turns every pooled item into an extra invoice line. The pricing is public and the estimator gives the exact amount before any commitment: a defensible costing from the very first council deliberation.
Schedules, attendees and bookings live in your Zimbra/CalDAV calendars and on your workstations — not with the vendor, not in a foreign cloud subject to extraterritorial laws.
The licence is a signed certificate verified locally: the app keeps working without a connection, network outage included.
No trackers, no embedded analytics, no CDN: what the app does can be verified — nothing has to be taken on faith.
