    Government & Municipalities

    Data-driven, demonstrably resilient, ready for AI

    One Dutch partner for municipalities, public agencies and central government. From information management, data quality and geodata to AI visibility and the Cybersecurity Act — in the language, pace and procurement process of the public sector.

    Who we work for

    Two layers of government, one way of working.

    Municipalities and central government face the same obligations, but at a different pace, mandate and procurement process. In both cases we start with a bounded baseline and grow on evidence.

    Municipalities & joint arrangements

    Services to residents, the zoning plan, the heat transition and the open government act — with limited capacity and a budget being written right now.

    • Fixed price below the tender threshold, start immediately
    • Reporting usable in the executive and the council
    • Neighbourhood level: BAG, BGT, CBS, liveability data

    Central government, agencies & provinces

    National registries, chain collaboration and supervision at scale — where governance, archiving and AI accountability must be demonstrable.

    • Procurement via DPS, framework agreement or TenderNed
    • AI register, IAMAs and high-risk AI towards Dec ’27
    • Petabyte-scale data infrastructure, NL/EU location

    Agenda 2026–2027

    The 2027 data agenda is already largely fixed.

    From archiving to AI and from wallet to zoning plan: the 2027 obligations are already known — and the budget that has to fund them is being written right now. A baseline assessment, a register and demonstrable governance take months, not weeks. Start now and you account with evidence instead of promises.

    • Now

      2027 budget being drafted

      New executives are drawing up their first full budget — the room for data, geodata and resilience in 2027 is being decided right now.

    • 15 Aug ’26

      Dutch Cybersecurity Act in force

      Decentralised governments are essential entities regardless of size: registration, duty of care, incident reporting, RDI supervision and BIO2 as the anchored framework.

    • Already in force

      AI literacy and transparency

      The AI literacy duty (Feb ’25) and the transparency duty for chatbots and AI content (Aug ’26) are already enforceable.

    • End ’26

      Accept the EUDI wallet

      (Semi-)public service providers must accept the European ID wallet alongside DigiD; relying-party registration and application changes run into 2027.

    • 1 Jan ’27

      New Archives Act

      Permanently retained information must be transferred after 10 instead of 20 years — digital information management has to be demonstrably in order sooner.

    • All of ’27

      Woo: wider active disclosure

      New information categories are expected to become mandatory for active publication, in tranches in January, April and October 2027.

    • ’26–’31

      Fully digital zoning plan

      Since 1 Jan ’26 changes are only possible in STOP/TPOD and TAM plans must be converted by end 2031 — BAG and BGT data quality is the precondition.

    • 2 Dec ’27

      High-risk AI applies

      Requirements on risk management, human oversight and EU-database registration — the window to build an AI register, IAMAs and governance is now.

    Four questions, one partner

    What public organisations bring us in for.

    Visibility, foundation, resilience and the physical domain. Every question starts with a bounded baseline and grows into structural collaboration.

    AI visibility of your services

    Residents and businesses ask AI assistants first. We test what those answer and make sure your own information decides the answer.

    Data foundation & information management

    Data quality, governance and archiving in order — the precondition under open government, the Archives Act and responsible AI.

    Cyber resilience: Cybersecurity Act & BIO2

    Your external attack surface mapped, tested against the duty of care and translated into a prioritised action list for accountability.

    Geodata for the physical domain

    Heat transition, housing, climate adaptation and the zoning plan — substantiated at address, neighbourhood and area level.

    Geodata & the physical domain

    The 2027 challenges play out on the map.

    Heat transition, housing, climate adaptation, the zoning plan: what municipalities are held accountable for is spatial. We combine base registries (BAG, BGT, WOZ), CBS neighbourhood data, liveability and climate data — and your own sources where wanted — into analysis at address, neighbourhood and area level. Public sources and your own data only, privacy by design.

    Heat transition & district approach

    Which neighbourhoods first? Substantiated on construction year, energy labels, housing types and social indicators — from map to delivery sequence.

    Housing & development

    Location and plan-capacity analysis, target groups and mobility per neighbourhood and pressure on amenities — input for your housing programme.

    Climate adaptation & risk

    Heat stress, flooding, subsidence and foundation risk per neighbourhood and building, translated into a prioritised adaptation agenda.

    Zoning plan & base registries

    Data quality and coherence of BAG and BGT in order — the geodata basis under STOP/TPOD, the DSO and a reliable area-wide zoning plan.

    Preconditions in order

    Built to meet public-sector requirements.

    Information security

    Controls designed to ISO 27001 and BIO2 principles; we share the current certification status transparently in every engagement.

    Data processing agreement

    Standard processing agreement and clear arrangements on data ownership and retention periods.

    NL/EU data location

    Storage and processing of government data within the Netherlands/EU. On-prem, hybrid or EU cloud — the choice and control stay with you.

    Privacy & GDPR

    Privacy by design, DPIA support and clear upfront agreements on purpose limitation, retention and data minimisation.

    SROI willingness

    We think along on Social Return obligations and deliver on them within the assignment where appropriate.

    Dutch organisation

    Based in Hilversum, with Dutch-speaking contacts and knowledge of the municipal context. Registration and references available on request.

    How we start

    A route that fits how municipalities procure.

    Trust comes from evidence, not promises. So we start small and grow on results.

    1. 01

      Intake & baseline

      We start with one productised baseline below the tender threshold. Fixed price, fixed scope, a concrete report within weeks.

    2. 02

      Pilot with proof

      Based on the baseline we take on one bounded question and make the result measurable — usable as a reference inside and outside the organisation.

    3. 03

      Scale & embed

      Structural collaboration through your regular procedure — TenderNed, a DPS or your procurement partnership — so multiple municipalities can benefit at once.

    Why Liplyn

    We have been building on Dutch government data for almost twenty years.

    Not a consultancy that still has to learn the public data landscape. We run production systems on open government data — from CBS and Kadaster to RDW, police open data and RIVM — and know what it takes to unlock them reliably and responsibly. Our origins are in location intelligence: analysis at address, neighbourhood and area level is a core specialism.

    2008

    Drimble.nl — hyperlocal data platform
