In 2018, the City Council of Tinajo started a strategic plan for the automated processing of citizen services that will entail a significant reduction in administrative work and costs, both for the Administration and for the citizen. The objective of this plan is to solve and automate the repetitive and mechanical processing of administrative documents requested on a recurring basis, in order to save time and resources on low-value tasks.

In a first phase (years 2018-2020), the following automated services are to be developed:

– Issuance of census certificate.

– Issuance of urban planning certificates.

– Issuance of minor construction permits.

– Registration of statements.

– Registration in trainings and workshops.

In 2018 was implemented automated issuance of census certificate and urban planning certificate. This project will allow citizens to have them online in a few minutes, completely free of charge. This supposes a step further in the automation and modernization of the public administration, without known precedents in the Spanish public administrations.

The final objective is the automated processing of documents that are requested on a recurring basis and that are issued manually by technicians. These documents are requested several times a week and automated processing will mean significant savings in working hours.

The project has served to learn more about the interoperability of the corporate systems implemented in the City Council, as well as to explore new possibilities for integration among them. This R&D&I, in addition to saving costs in the future, is an innovation that saves costs since its implementation, since it saves face-to-face visits and requests at the town hall.

Integration of the corporate File manager with the application and architecture of the Geographical Information System (GIS), including integration of digital authentication of the applicant. 



The knowledge that outcomes from the project is that the modernization of the administration and the automation of certain administrative routines can result in a great saving of time and resources for the administration. A great chance to optimize the time and the work of the technicians, who can dedicate themselves to matters of more relevance and value.

On the other hand, this automation is applicable to multiple public administrations, with a very clear lesson: the quality of the service remains at a high level and at the same time many more possibilities for citizenship are opened, from the moment it is not necessary to go to the administration offices to perform certain bureaucratic procedures.

The electronic administration platform GESTIONA, developed by the company EsPublico, is present in 5,953 spanish administrations, that is, 30% of the Spanish public sector. Its API allows, among other things and through third-party applications, the electronic processing of documents such as the one proposed by this project. The adaptability of this project to other administrations with GESTIONA is total, thanks to the flexibility of its API and the full integration with the ENMAPA GIS system.
