Expertise

Over 25 years of experience with data challenges at the intersection of policy, technology and organisation.

E-Space supports government organisations with data challenges at the intersection of policy, operations and technology. From data strategy and governance to concrete models, standards and exchange agreements that connect with existing processes and national facilities.

When is E-Space the right partner? When your organisation:

  • Is struggling with data sharing between organisations and needs clear agreements and models
  • Is looking for an independent advisor who translates data strategy into tangible building blocks
  • Wants to develop a standard or make better use of existing standards
  • Faces an interoperability challenge that spans policy, technology and organisation
  • Wants to translate European interoperability frameworks into Dutch practice

Information models

Government organisations that want to share data or work in a data-driven way need a common language. E-Space develops and harmonises information models that lay that foundation. From conceptual model to logical model and implementation specification. Arjen has extensive experience modelling complex government domains, including the Gemeentelijk Gegevensmodel, which is used by more than 150 municipalities.

  • Conceptual information models
  • Logical data models
  • Harmonisation of existing models
  • Modelling guidelines and governance
◊

Data standards

Standards ensure that organisations speak the same language and can exchange data reliably. E-Space designs standards that are actually put into practice, and understands the standardisation process from concept to adoption. Arjen works with organisations such as Forum Standaardisatie and VNG on standards that are supported and applied by multiple parties.

  • Data standard design
  • Standardisation trajectories and adoption guidance
  • Assessment and evaluation of standards
  • Alignment with national and international standards
⇄

Data exchange

When organisations need to share data, the challenge is rarely just technical. E-Space specifies and designs data exchanges that are sound both semantically and technically: from API specifications to messaging standards and exchange architecture. Arjen has experience with complex exchange challenges in areas such as the social domain and debt assistance services.

  • API specifications and messaging standards
  • Semantic alignment between parties
  • Exchange architecture and governance frameworks
  • Chain analysis and information flow design
■

Data strategy and data ecosystems

Many government organisations have policy ambitions around data but lack the translation into concrete steps. E-Space helps make that translation: a data strategy that does not just exist on paper, but is rooted in concrete information models, standards and organisational design. Experience includes work for the municipality of Delft.

  • Data strategy and roadmap
  • Data maturity assessment
  • Data ecosystem design
  • Alignment with national developments
★

European interoperability

Practical application of Dutch and European interoperability frameworks. E-Space translates the principles of the European Interoperability Framework and the Dutch NORA into concrete guidance for government organisations working on cross-border or cross-sector data exchange.

  • Application of the European Interoperability Framework
  • Alignment with NORA and other reference architectures
  • Interoperability analysis and advisory
  • Semantic harmonisation in a European context
