Digital citizen information: Bütema & Wedeko modernize cities

General

Digitalization is no longer limited to retail—cities and municipalities are also increasingly relying on modern information systems. With its Wedeko brand, Bütema AG has successfully implemented several municipal digital signage projects in recent months, including in Ulm, Schönau in the Black Forest, and Hockenheim.

Making digital citizen communication visible

The focus is on solutions that efficiently connect administration and citizens. Whether announcements, event notices, or information on citizen services: content can be centrally controlled, displayed daily, and presented in an accessible manner. And this applies to both indoor and outdoor areas. The robust displays are weatherproof, vandal-proof, and blend in visually with the cityscape.

Practical examples from three cities

In Ulm, the focus is on service and visitor management. In the municipal citizen services center, large-format displays provide orientation and show current processes and waiting times.

Schönau in the Black Forest relies on digital information directly at the town hall. The displays provide citizens with round-the-clock information about events, offers, and administrative topics. The content can be flexibly maintained and updated in real time.

Hockenheim, on the other hand, has launched a customized, interactive city information system. This includes two 55" outdoor touch steles, a 75" touch display at the town hall, a daylight-compatible shop window display, and several 32" displays for showing room occupancy and meeting schedules.

Technology for modern urban communication

"Digital information systems are now a central component of modern urban communication," explains Lutz Hollmann-Raabe, CSO & COO of Bütema AG. "With the Wedeko brand, we offer a specific solution that is flexible, intuitive to use, and easy to maintain in the long term, even when resources are scarce on site."


The Wedeko systems from Bütema are modular, scalable, and can be controlled across multiple locations. The service package includes consulting, hardware, software, content creation, maintenance, and support—all from a single source in a managed service model.

With the Wedeko brand, Bütema AG is positioning itself as a strong digitalization partner for cities and municipalities. The goal: to make citizen communication visible—digitally, reliably, and without barriers.
