The municipality of Oss, a thriving community in North Brabant, Netherlands, sought to improve its digital services to better serve its diverse population of over 92,000 residents. As more citizens turned to the internet for information, the existing website’s outdated design and limited accessibility posed challenges.

To address these issues, Oss launched a comprehensive website redesign focused on inclusivity, user-friendliness, and accessibility to ensure easy access to information for all users, including families, seniors, and entrepreneurs.

The Challenge

With Oss’s growth and an increasing reliance on digital platforms for municipal information, the need for an accessible, user-friendly website became clear. The previous site, while functional, struggled to meet the diverse needs of families, seniors, and entrepreneurs, presenting opportunities to improve accessibility and user experience. Oss recognized the need for an updated digital platform that would be easy to use and accessible to everyone in the community.
