I write for two different readers who sit at the same table. For the head of the municipality, the district head (starosta), the chairman and council members, who don't need to know IT jargon but simply want to understand the risks involved and what it really costs. And for treasurers, financial directors and those overseeing IT, who understand finance and want to supervise projects, requirements and suppliers more effectively — without having to learn to code.

I start with the topics that both local authorities and municipal companies, as well as subsidiary companies in industrial groups, actually ask about — and which already have a foundation in the FAQ sections of Krogis's service pages.
Describe your situation or question and the assistant will point to posts worth reading. It chooses only from this blog and gives no advice.
Mistakes that buying organisations make before they even choose a supplier - mistakes that later require costly annexes, lead to disputes over scope and make it hard to exit the contract.
Financial oversight 02 An IT strategy that won't end up in a drawer: what should it actually contain?Seven elements that make a digitalisation strategy tell the board what to do in the next budget, not just where you want to end up.
No jargon 03 How to justify the IT budget to the Council: obligation, investment and the cost of inactionHow the treasurer and secretary can split IT spending into obligation, investment and maintenance, describe the cost of inaction, and present it to the Council in plain language.
Financial oversight 04 The Central Contracts Register in local government, step by step: who reports, within what deadline, and how to avoid manual data entryWhich contracts a local authority must enter into the Central Contracts Register, within what deadline, who is responsible, and how to link the register with invoice and contract workflows to avoid manual data entry.
Both worlds 05 From EZD PUW to an EZD-class system: what the secretary should establish before the authority chooses its pathWhich deadlines actually apply when moving away from EZD PUW, which decisions belong to the authority, and what to ask vendors before choosing a system.
No jargon 06 The new KSC Act and local government units (JST): what leadership needs to know, and where to startThe amended Polish National Cybersecurity System Act (KSC) has applied since 3 April 2026 and covers district offices and municipal offices. What it means for the starosta, wójt and secretary, and what the first step is.
No jargon 07 Where should a district office without an IT director start its digitisation?First steps for a district secretary: an inventory of systems and contracts, a plan of obligations, a budget for the District Council, and a digitisation lead without a new post.
No jargon 08 How to prepare your company to choose a workflow/BPM/RPA/ERP/CRM system without becoming locked into a vendorProcesses before the tool, an inventory of what you already have, requirements that guard against vendor lock-in, multi-year cost and a contract with an exit plan.
Both worlds 09 EZD with KSeF Support Is Not Yet Invoice WorkflowWhy pulling an invoice from KSeF into an EZD-class system does not automate invoice workflow in a public authority, how many hands and systems an invoice passes through, and how to map that process from receipt to payment.
Both worlds 10 We have document workflow because we have EZD? Not quiteWhy an EZD-class system is only part of a public authority's document workflow, which documents live outside it, and what a process platform is, on which further workflows get built.
