After the deployment of this strategy, the municipal government of the city will present a before and after, in terms of open - digital government, for citizens generating a robust electronic government, on a solid base of ICT infrastructure. We designed the sectoral plan for Coatzabierto, which drives and promotes the transformation and modernization of the government and city functions, which serves and interacts with the areas that are part of the modernization process of the public function. As part of the Coatzabierto strategy, we developed citizen exercises, which helped us to shape the ICT sector plan and the government program, as well as to know the feelings of the citizens about the information requirements, needs, services, improvements, comments , suggestions, about the municipal operation. As part of this process at the beginning of this year, we started our process of digital surveys and in social networks, to know and evaluate the performance, functionality, as well as to know the comments, complaints and suggestions about the components of Coatzabierto, where we have a goal of 500 surveys.

To make the development of the project possible, an economically feasible budget was generated, since the municipal government lacked economic feasibility and to achieve the development we were forced to apply innovation and creativity, so the Coatzabierto project was developed with a budget 3.5 million pesos (citizen-oriented digital solutions), representing an estimated saving of more than 15 million pesos, in relation to the commercial project proposals that were valued, and that are reason for municipal governments to go little by little on the path of modernization of public administration. In terms of information and communication technology infrastructure, 17 million pesos were invested.

From the planning stage, our project and all its components were designed to develop a project that could be replicated in any municipality in the world, and above all that could be replicated at a low cost to the local government. For this, what is required is the development of a diagnosis to generate an implementation plan and budget. Local: It generates an avant-garde government, which positions us as a good government, by attending to good practices, the national and state agenda, as well as international trends in the development of good governments, open and digital governments.

The Coatzabierto Project initiative comprehensive strategy and citizen collaboration was internally evaluated by the government innovation department which belongs to the Coatzacoalcos municipal government, see. A technological development was developed that allowed us to identify the technical capacity of the project, complying with the methods and objectives to which the project is aligned, on a solid base of ICT infrastructure. Which is made up of a team of people trained with knowledge in the strategies of the various agendas and good national and international practices.

In order to evaluate the Coatzabierto project, we are based on the positive results that the initiative has had before the citizens, as in each system we validate, verify and feed back the data, as the systems have sections where we can export, consult data such as performance of the areas, inquiries, downloads, citizen connections, graphics, Database, among others, all in real time, data that we are updating monthly. Basing ourselves not only on hard data, but also aligning ourselves with the sustainable development objectives of the 20/30 agenda, innovation, adaptability and sustainability for the municipal government.

One of our main barriers to the development of the strategy was the human factor, within the institution, understanding that current times demand a change of course. The construction of digital governments and the implementation of the open government strategy is becoming more common in our country every day, however, the 3 aspects that stop this type of projects from being more common in our country are: lack of allocation of budget for this type of projects in the cities, the bad designation of the project leaders for this type of initiatives, the lack of sponsorship or leadership on the part of the mayor, the fear of change within the organization and finally the lack of sectorized planning. Transforming the government in person to a government online 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It was possible to promote citizen participation and collaboration, adopting open government as a government strategy. Today, the citizen has multiple communication channels, becoming a government facilitator of citizen requirements, saving time and money for citizens and the government.

Our first step was to incorporate in our planning the timely attention of the UN 20/30 agenda, INAFED, the alliance for open government, the national digital agenda, the bases of electronic, open government and sustainable and smart cities, as well as a plan action plan developed by the IDB, and study best practices from around the world on smart cities, digital and open government, to start the construction and transformation of the project in the future. Based mainly on accountability and transparency, incorporating this ingredient in each of our developments with the purpose that each of the components of the strategy imply these components, this can be evaluated with the transparency portal, access to information public, the open data portal, the publication of proactive financial information, in addition to our systems such as the SDT - Digital system of procedures and services, Municipal System of Works and Actions, The monitoring system, Tracking and control of the trucks of Municipal government garbage, via GPS, and the SIAC - Comprehensive Citizen Assistance and Collaboration System, have internal reports that make their operation transparent at all times.

We designed the sectoral plan for Coatzabierto, which drives and promotes the transformation and modernization of the government and city functions, which serves and interacts with the areas that are part of the modernization process of the public function. The Coatzabierto project was implemented to leave a legacy, which will give certainty and future administrations would not have to start from scratch, which could implement new developments and projects. It is intended to leave a project with a useful life of 25 years, but being manageable and prepared for growth, it could be modernized in due course, thus extending its life for another 15 years. As part of this process, we carry out digital and social media surveys to learn about and evaluate performance, functionality, as well as to learn about comments, complaints and suggestions about Coatzabierto components. Our commitment is to work to build more tools for the service of the citizen, likewise to build a project that serves as a tool for the government and society. It is worth mentioning that we will be incorporating more objectives, generating actions and services that meet the SDGs and that they will achieve the goals set step by step.

The municipal government plans to continue with the commitment it has with the citizenry, in the second stage of the digital inclusion program, projects oriented to public safety, it is intended to continue covering most of the ejidos and congregations, parks, squares, public places, libraries, with access to the Coatzabierto project. In the third stage, the Citizen Education Portal in the cloud, the employment and trades portal, the new tourism portal, digital management of trades and the digitization of the municipal cadastre file will be implemented. As well as the sensorization of air quality and noise in at least 5 points of the city, video surveillance network with license plate reader at the entrances and exits of the city. In the fourth, it is intended to have at least 50% of the city's territory with internet, as well as the monitoring of citizen mobility, municipal transport electrical system, to have at least 250 video surveillance cameras in the city. The project was planned in 5 initial phases, at the conclusion of the 5 stages, it will be necessary to return to the planning to generate according to the trends of the moment, as well as the needs that arise for the citizens.
