Client Challenge
Since the 2000s, French public authorities have increasingly recognized the importance of Open Source software. This commitment was underscored by President Macron’s emphasis on Open Source for digital sovereignty in his June 2023 Vivatech speech. Building on a 2021 Prime Ministerial circular, the Ministry of Transformation and Public Service launched the "Open Source and Digital Commons" plan to promote Open Source use and development in government and attract digital talent. LINAGORA is at the forefront of this initiative, leading the market in delivering support for Open Source software.
As the French government and its ministries embrace Open Source to drive digital transformation, they prioritize reliability, security, and innovation. They seek high-quality maintenance and expert support to enhance public services. By securing a trusted partner in LINAGORA through official tenders, they ensure greater control, transparency, and sustainability in their Open Source initiatives.

Solution
LINAGORA has successfully secured two significant tenders with the Ministry of Finance, covering support and maintenance as well as expertise in Open Source solutions. Out of the 6 lots available, LINAGORA won Lots 1 and 2, offering services such as implementation studies, support, audits, feasibility studies, development, and monitoring on a unit-based order system. This contract showcases LINAGORA’s extensive expertise and top-tier professionals, leveraging the collaborative nature of our community. Through our Open Source Software Assurance (OSSA) service, established in 2004, we deliver premium 24/7 support and maintenance for a wide range of Open Source applications.
