00:00Welcome back. Now that you've been fully brief about what Lordymas is and what can offer your
00:08community, we would like to guide you through the use of the website. First of all, let's recap.
00:16The Lordymas Digital Maturity Assessment is designed to be an annual checkup for your
00:21municipality digital journey. Each year you will track your progress and see how your local
00:28government and Europe as a whole are evolving over time. The insights you gain aren't just
00:36for your administration, they help shape smarter policies, unlock targeted funding and enhance
00:42services for your citizens. National and EU level policy makers also use this data to provide better
00:50support and resources, ensuring no municipality is left behind in the digital age. Let's take a closer
01:00look. Lordymas focus on seven key areas that are crucial for digital maturity. Governance,
01:08service design, data management, interoperability, service delivery, technology and networking.
01:17Each area is assessed through the survey we will explore shortly. Based on your answers a digital
01:24maturity score is generated for each topic. This helps you understand how well your municipality is
01:32doing and where improvements can be made. Here's where the power of the tool really emerges. You can view
01:40and compare results from municipalities or cities using the map and search functions, making it easy
01:48to benchmark and learn from others. The higher the number of municipalities that join, the more valuable
01:55these insights become. If you want to dive deeper, you can explore the best practices section to see real
02:04world examples of digital success. For example, here we can see the example of Derasa, Spain, where they developed
02:16an online tool to boost citizen participation. This is just one example of cities making a difference with digital
02:28solution. We strongly encourage you to explore the different examples you can find in the best practices
02:36and dive deeper in the case of Spain, Italy, France and so many other EU member states that are working
02:45with their cities, municipalities and regions to boost their digitalization.
02:51In addition to promote your own best practice, please click on insert your best practice.

05:51You can do so by using the magnifier icon in your upper corner in the right and just add your municipality name
06:00and see if indeed your municipality has already submitted Lordima's.
06:07Following this intro page you will land on the Lordima's survey page. The survey is organized around seven key areas we discussed before.
06:21Each model has a set of straightforward questions that assess where your municipality stands in terms of digital governance.
06:29In the governance module you will access your municipality approach to linking digital transformation with environmental sustainability, budget allocation for digital services and governance structure coordinating these services.
06:46In the service design module you will evaluate the advance of digital service design processes focusing on elements such as the digital by default principle, agile and interactive design approaches, user engagement, data-driven performance, monitoring and co-creation with innovation ecosystems.
07:11In the data management section you will have to access storage, collection, organization, accessibility and exploration of your data.
07:23Following up by interoperability module where you will access how easily data infrastructure and services can connect across departments or public administrations.
07:37including the use of open source software, open standards, shared data modules and much more.
07:45Following up the service delivery you will assess the user friendliness and inclusiveness of your administration digitalized public services for all citizens considering principles such as once only or one service.
07:55In the technology module you will access your administration readiness for all citizens considering principles such as once only or one stop shop.
08:09In the technology module you will access your administration readiness for an adoption of advanced digital technologies including big data, virtual augmented reality, AI, IoT and others.
08:27Finally, the last module of your assessment is networking.
08:33The networking module you will assess the extent of your cooperative initiatives for procurement, development and deployment or sharing common digital infrastructure services.
08:47This questionnaire uses a simple five point scale from not at all to fully operational in most sections.
08:59Your answers create a clear picture of how your digital strengths and areas of growth make sure you reply to all questions marked with an asterisk to successfully submit your assessment.
09:15After you submit the Lordimus questionnaire you can start exploring your data and benchmarking your city with others.
09:27To start, click return to the home page and select explore.
09:35Once inside the tool you will see the different filters listed in the side panel.
09:41These filters include year, country, type of region, maturity level and city name.
09:53An explanation about this dashboard for each of seven modules is also included at the top left corner of the tool.
10:01At the top of the interface you will notice the horizontal bar.
10:09This bar allows you to quickly switch between the seven different modules of Lordimus making navigation intuitive.
10:21Each module contains key sections such as the maturity level and score of the cities you selected using the filters, the maturity level and score of each indicator within the selection module,
10:37the corresponding map which can be used to view the details for each city in a pop-up window by clicking the city icon.
10:49For example, in here you can see Ayuntamento de Madrid and you can see in the pop-up all the data collected and how they score in the different maturity levels.
11:01To start benchmarking, select the benchmark.
11:05This feature allows you to compare various European cities for each of the seven modules of the Lordimus overall.
11:13Next, choose the city you want to compare.
11:15Next, choose the city you want to compare.
11:17In this case we will compare Barcelona in Catalunya with Amsterdam in the Netherlands.
11:41As you can see the results are instantaneous.
11:49You can completely understand the difference between the maturity scoring from Barcelona and Amsterdam.
11:57What is really useful about this benchmarking and this dashboard is that you can also see across different indicators such as twin transition, institution and other key PIs.
12:11Thank you very much for taking this quick overlook and tutorial on how to use the Lordimus website.
