Heading two

When Hudiksvall Municipality wanted to make their Office templates accessible and easy to use

The municipality of Hudiksvall needed to modernize their Office templates. Their existing templates were complex, information-packed and difficult to use in practice. At the same time, the municipality wanted to ensure that all documentation met accessibility requirements and followed the graphic profile.

Heading two

The need for easy access and uniform templates across the organization

The municipality expressed a clear wish: they needed not only accessible Word templates, but also solutions that made it easy for all employees to find and use the templates in their daily work. As the project progressed, the need grew - Excel and PowerPoint templates, starter templates and functional template buttons were added as part of the brief.

Heading three

A smart end-to-end solution with template buttons, starter templates and personal details

Rehngruppen built a completely new template structure from scratch. Starter templates now open automatically when the user opens an Office program, and the template buttons provide direct access to the municipality's entire template library. We also integrated personal data so that users' information is automatically placed in the right place in documents - regardless of role, committee or department. In addition, subfolders were created for different logo variants, so the right template is always close at hand.

Heading four

From complexity to simplicity - the result was accessible and user-friendly

Hudiksvall Municipality received a complete solution with accessibility-adapted and user-friendly templates in Word, PowerPoint and Excel. Thanks to a clear structure, quality assurance according to accessibility requirements and smart functionality, even inexperienced users can now create professional documents easily. The municipality has a solution that combines aesthetics, functionality and accessibility - and makes it almost impossible to make mistakes.

Accessible templates - and much more!

Initially, the assignment included only accessible Word templates. However, during the project, the assignment was developed. Hudikvall Municipality also added Excel and PowerPoint templates, template buttons and starter templates.

The template buttons allow users to easily access all the municipality's templates directly from Office. The start templates are adapted for accessibility and are designed based on Hudikvall municipality's graphic profile. They open automatically when the user opens an Office program. This makes it almost impossible for the user to make mistakes! For the same reason, we also applied personal information, which means that the user's information automatically ends up in the right place in the templates.

From complex to easy-to-use templates

By far the biggest challenge of the project was to develop the municipality's complex and information-packed templates to be accessible and easy to use. For example, the templates contained information fields for personal information that needed to be updated automatically, but where the user could have multiple roles in different committees and administrations. In addition, much of the information was in the header and footer of the templates, which is not acceptable under accessibility requirements. Another challenge was that the templates had different logos for different areas of the municipality.

Functionality and ease of use

Rehngruppen started from scratch. We produced functional templates with a clear structure that makes the templates user-friendly even for the most inexperienced users. All templates were quality assured according to accessibility requirements.

With the implementation of personalized data, the municipality's users' data is placed in the right place in the templates. Completely automatically - regardless of role, committee or administration!

Under the template button there are subfolders with the different logo variants. In this way, the user today has easy access to all templates directly in Office, regardless of which administration the user belongs to.
