Summarized Problem
Piraquara City Hall wanted to further expand its communication and make it more accessible and modern for the population. Therefore, a new change to the Piraquara City Hall's portal was necessary. 

Summarized Solution
Visionnaire developed and launched the new Piraquara City Hall's portal, being responsible for all design and technological infrastructure of the portal. Visionnaire's CMS solution facilitated the update of the portal for the city's communication team and other 11 secretariats.

The renovation of Piraquara City Hall's portal kept it updated with the new standards of the web. The portal became even more dynamic, interactive, full of different types of content and visually attractive. 

Results
Piraquara City Hall's portal went through another renewal conducted by Visionnaire, becoming even more modern both visually and functionally, through new resources that facilitated the work of the city's communication office. 

With a renewed portal, everyone benefited. On the one hand, Piraquara City Hall started to offer more content and reach more and more of the population, which is the main function of the communication department. 

On the other hand, the population started to access an even more beautiful and easy-to-navigate portal, with a new design and new content disposition, following modern web standards. 

Technologies
The demand required a Content Management System (CMS) because, due to the large volume of information and the need for constant updating, the development of a static site would not be possible. Therefore, Visionnaire WebPublication, which is a solution focused on portals of all sizes, was used. 

Other technologies used were: integration with other systems through Java language (JEE, currently Jakarta EE), Windows operating system, HTML5, CSS3, Apache Tomcat, XML, XSL, XSLT, JSP, JavaScript/Ajax/DWR, jQuery and Microsoft SQL Server database, IIS web server, UML modeling (Unified Modeling Language), use of the MVC pattern.

Detailed Problem
The city of Piraquara, in the state of Paraná, is officially recognized as the Water Capital of Paraná due to its springs, which constitute an environmental protection area responsible for half of the water supply in the metropolitan region of Curitiba, capital of the state. As a result of the growth of the state capital and the cities around it, Piraquara has become increasingly attractive to entrepreneurs and traders. 

According to a survey by the Paraná Institute of Economic and Social Development (IPARDES), Piraquara has above-average population growth due to its commuter city profile, as many of its inhabitants work in Curitiba and choose the city to live and grow, thus attracting the new middle class in search of quality of life. 

Visionnaire and Piraquara City Hall had already had a successful partnership since 2013. Visionnaire was responsible for updating Piraquara City Hall's website, which until then was composed of static pages and followed old web concepts. Enabled as the best solution, Visionnaire quickly developed and launched a new site, being responsible for all design and technological infrastructure of the project. 

With the new website up and running, the City Hall of Piraquara faced a new challenge: to further expand communication and make it more accessible and modern for the population, as communication with the public needs to be as efficient as possible as a public agency. 

It was therefore necessary to carry out a new renovation of the Piraquara City Hall portal in order to add resources that were not yet available on the site (such as video tools) and keep the portal updated, following the latest web trends. 

Detailed Solution
Once again, Visionnaire was enabled as the best solution and quickly developed and launched the new Piraquara City Hall website, being responsible for all design and technological infrastructure of the portal. 

The Visionnaire CMS solution facilitated the update of the Piraquara City Hall portal. Not only the communication team but all the other 11 secretariats of the municipality benefited from WebPublication. Each secretariat had its responsible user registered, and this user carried out the update in their own sector without needing to demand from the communication department. 

The renovation of the Piraquara City Hall portal kept it updated with new web standards. The portal became even more dynamic, interactive, full of different types of content and visually appealing.
