Forms management solutions for public administration
Nowadays, citizens want to be able to deal with their administrative affairs conveniently online, irrespective of opening hours. Materna helps government agencies turn paper forms into web-based forms.
Optimized administration processes
Intelligent electronic forms support communication between citizens, companies and administration in many application scenarios, be it for a police clearance certificate, an Internet transit declaration to customs or an application for access to Stasi documents. Thanks to media-consistent forms management processes, such services can be used online around the clock.
State-of-the-art forms management systems do more than simply process electronic paper forms. Structured or semi-structured data is recorded in a user-friendly, interactive and transaction-secured manner. Web-based forms applications support business processes from input to output.
Integrated plausibility checks ensure high data integrity and speed up processing. Integration into existing specialist processes creates the prerequisite for the use of automated workflows. Self-services provide a convenient response channel and reduce shipping costs.

Partnerships
Diverse partner landscape
Our partners are Bundesdruckerei, Governikus, IT.NRW, ITZBund, Lucom, NINTEX and Proximity.
Lucom: The Lucom Interaction Platform is the technological basis with which Materna and its partner Proximity successfully implement complex forms for electronic communication between public authorities, businesses and citizens in the federal and state administration. For this purpose, framework agreements have been concluded with the ITZBund and IT.NRW, for example.
MACH and Bundesdruckerei: Materna, MACH and Bundesdruckerei have developed a joint concept for a fully-comprehensive electronic ordering and billing process. The drivers for this are the EU Directive 2014/55/EU on electronic invoicing for public contracts and the federal national e-bill law of December 2016. The regulations will enter into force for federal ministries and constitutional bodies on November 27, 2018. Public clients are therefore advised to start corresponding projects promptly in order to be able to process electronic invoices.
