Alingsås Municipality has built a structured and open digital environment with Alfresco as its central document management platform. In this episode, IT Architect Christian Alfredsson explains how the municipality moved from traditional shared drives to controlled document rooms with clear governance and permissions.

We discuss web-based editing with Collabora, platform independence across schools and administration, and how open source supports long-term sustainability. The episode also covers how AI is securely tested to improve searchability in policies and political documents, strengthening both internal efficiency and citizen service.
