Three-Year Plan for ICT | 4. Intangible Infrastructure
Torna a 3. Physical Infrastructure
4. Intangible Infrastructure¶
Data from public administrations, together with the mechanisms and platforms created to provide services to citizens, are one of the major digital assets of the PA.
This chapter is devoted to these intangible infrastructures and develops along two lines:
The rationalisation and enhancement of the information assets of the Public Administration by overcoming the “silo logic”, still too often adopted today and legacy of administrative processes and organisational choices made in the past;
The common factor of software components that are useful to all Public Administrations and which can be considered both accelerators of the digitisation process and tools for the homogenisation of the services offered.
Intangible Infrastructures are subdivided into two macro groups, as shown in Figure 6:
PA data, i.e. activities related to databases of national interest, open data and controlled vocabularies;
The Enabling Platforms, that is, platforms shared at national level by PAs.
Fig. 4.1 Figure 6 - Components of intangible infrastructures
4.1. Public Administration Data¶
Enhancing of public information assets is a strategic goal for Public Administration. To exploit the potential of the immense wealth of data collected and managed by the PA, it is necessary to implement a paradigm shift in their management that allows to overcome “silo logic” in favour of a systemic vision. Data must be understood as a common good, shared free of charge between public administrations for institutional purposes [23] and usable by civil society, unless the reasons for not doing so are documented and properly reasoned [24].
To implement this paradigm, the Plan identifies three areas:
Databases of national interest, or reliable databases, homogeneous by type and content, relevant to the performance of institutional functions of public administrations and for analysis purposes. They constitute the backbone of public information assets, to be made available to all PAs, facilitating the exchange of data and avoiding asking for the same information more often from citizens or enterprises (once only principle [25]);
*Open date*, or “open type data”. They involve a process designed to make Public Administration data freely usable, re-usable and redistributable by anyone and for any purpose, including commercial, provided they are not subject to particular restrictions (e.g. state secret, statistical confidentiality, Privacy restrictions defined by the Privacy Policy);
Controlled vocabularies and data models, which are a common and shared way of organizing recurring codes and nomenclatures in a regulated and standardized manner (controlled vocabularies) and a comprehensive and rigorous conceptualization within a given domain (ontology or shared data model).
Enhancing public assets requires careful guidance that draws on the processes of standardisation, generation, retention and reuse of data. This upgrade will bring benefits in terms of greater administrative efficiency, re-use of data for the benefit of the citizen (thus avoiding re-supplying data already held by the Public Administration) and widening the possibilities of analysis, including the understanding and prediction of social phenomena to support the process of policy making and the development of services to the citizen.
4.1.1. Databases of national interest¶
According to Article 60 of the CAD, databases of national interest are all the information collected and managed digitally by public administrations, homogeneous by type and content, and whose knowledge is relevant to the performance of the institutional functions of the other PAs, also for statistical purposes and analysis, using big data methodologies. In particular, databases of national interest:
Refer to data collected and managed by or on behalf of the managing authority so that they can respond to the credibility or authenticity of the source;
Have a high socio-economic relevance;
Are at the service of administrative proceedings falling within the competence of other Public Administrations for the performance of their institutional duties;
Support cross-border administrative procedures in implementation of Community standards or directives;
Are authoritative in the domain of reference.
In the European context, data bases of national interest correspond to the so-called **Base Register** [26], or basic components to support the interaction between public administrations and between them and the private bodies. The term Base Register is used in the **European Interoperability Framework** [27] to indicate reliable, authentic and official sources of particularly relevant data produced by Public Administrations. These data are the foundation for building public services and the public administrations have the task of managing them according to clear quality, security and privacy requirements.
4.1.1.1. The current situation¶
Most existing public data bases have been designed and implemented in a distinct way, without the support of an overview useful to address regulatory and technical actions that can enhance data quality.
Over time this feature has generated the fragmentation of the public information assets of the Public Administration into information silos: “containers” in which the data is often replicated and stored unevenly or even inconsistently and in a misaligned manner.
The CAD (Article 60, paragraph 3a) identifies a set of databases of national interest (see Glossary):
the *National Repertoire of Territorial Data* [28] (RNDT) - Holder: AgID;
The National *resident population register* [29] (ANPR) - Holder: Ministry of the Interior;
The *National Public Contracts Database* [30] (BDNCP) - Holder: ANAC;
the *Criminal records-* [31] Holder: Ministry of Justice;
*the Business Register* [32] - Holder: UnionCamere;
Automated Immigration and Asylum Archives - Owner: Ministry of the Interior;
National Assistance Register (ANA) - Holders: Ministry of Economy and Finance and Ministry of Health;
The Register of Farms - Holders: Regions and Ministry of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies.
The following data bases, governed by the regulatory context of the CAD and the Decree Law 18 October 2012, no. 179 [33]:
The National Archive of Civic Numbers of Urban Roads (ANNCSU) - Owner: ISTAT and the Revenue Agency;
The Cadastral Database - Holder: Revenue Agency;
The *Public Administration Index* [34] (IPA) - Holder: AgID;
The *certified national email address list of professionals and businesses* [35] (INI-PEC) - Holder: Ministry of Economic Development.
Article. 60 of the CAD assigns to the AgID the possibility of extending the previous list which should therefore be considered as non-exhaustive and expanding. In fact, in addition to the databases contained in the aforementioned regulatory references, there are others that are comparable to them:
The Public Vehicle Register (PRA) - Owner: ACI;
Tax Registry - Owner: Revenue Agency;
*catalogue of* *Public* Administration [36] - Holder: AgID;
The catalogue of Services for Citizens and Businesses - Holder: AgID;
The National Infrastructure Information System (SINFI) - Holder: Ministry of Economic Development.
The PA also has data that, if appropriately organised and managed, can form new databases of national interest. These include, for example: crime data and statistics collected by the Ministry of the Interior; mobility data (already covered by the Third National Action Plan for ‘**Open Government Partnership** (OGP)) [37] for whose release and re-use, the Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport has identified specific actions to be undertaken; the data of the regional schools and vocational training centres on the national territory present in the project *Scuola in chiaro* [38], run by the Ministry of Education, University and Research; The Economic Operators Database (BDOE) and the other data bases connected with the e-procurement; the performance scoreboard and performance indicators [39], to be implemented in the *Performance Portal* [40], run by the Department of Public Service.
4.1.1.2. Strategic objectives¶
Make or adapt databases of public administrations, with the aim of reducing redundancies caused by asynchronous copies and manual intervention, promoting consistency and certainty of information.
Facilitate access to data by implementing APIs in order to exploit the potential introduced by the integration of individual databases, transforming them into enabling platforms.
Complete the migration of data from the municipal registry to ANPR.
Integrate ANPR with other databases of national interest, making ANPR the authoritative source of citizens’ personal data.
Make ANPR an Enabling Platform with secure integration APIs with other Public Administrations and third-party systems and self-service interfaces for citizens.
Proceed to populating the data on *IPA* [41] and *INI-PEC*, [42] as documented on their sites.
Ensure compliance with the quality requirements of national data bases as defined by the data quality standard *ISO / IEC 25012 *Data quality model** [43], applying the technical rules defined by AgID with the *Determination no. 68/2013* [44] for critical data bases.
Identify how to access each database or catalogue and produce technical-normative references.
Use national data bases to feed the Data & Analytics Framework.
4.1.1.3. Lines of action¶
Promoting policies and actions to foster coordination in the creation of databases and ensure their quality;
Actions for the enhancement of the PA’s information assets by updating the guidelines to ensure that PAs exhibiting public data follow a uniform catalogue population process;
Releasing the prototype of a software platform that PAs can take for free to manage and publish their open data;
Communication and training actions to promote the population of the national catalogue of public data.
Adoption by the PAs of national data bases of the guidelines outlined in Chapter 5 “Interoperability Model” will facilitate the dissemination of information between Public Administrations.
All PAs are therefore required to use databases and registers that are already operational and specified on the AgID site.
Subject Use of IPA and INI-PEC registers

Subject BDOE economic operator database
Time Frames By July 2018
Players MIT, AgID, and all PAs holding data bases of national interest
The Economic Operators Database (BDOE) acts as the sole intermediary of the contracting authority’s request for documents or data to substantiate the requirements declared by the economic operator during the submission of the bid. It also allows to certify compliance by the contracting station of the obligation indicated in paragraph 1 Art.81 of D.Lgs 50/2016.
BDOE also provides the e-Certis service to [48] verify the statements of Italian economic operators.
The databases used by BDOE to retrieve the above information are the national registers made available by the following Administrations: MISE, Revenue Agency, Unioncamere / Infocamere, Ministry of Justice, Ministry of the Interior, ANAC, Ministry of Labour, INPS, INAIL, Casse Edili, Accredia, InarCassa and other Professionals.
The integration plan of BDOE with the aforementioned databases also contemplates the adaptation of the latter in order to fully manage the information, providing for its history.

Integration of the Database of Economic Operators with databases that already have digital information (Release date: December 2017)
Completion of integration with databases and operations of the Database of Economic Operators (Release date: April 2018)
The open data are defined as “open type data” in art. 68 of the CAD and are considered to be fundamental elements in the transposition of the European Public Information Directive [49].
Public data is open if:
They are not related to individuals;
They are made available in an open format, that is, not owned, with the related metadata;
They are associated with a license that allows anyone the widest reuse. A maximum of two constraints are allowed: indicate the source of the data, re-use them according to the same terms for which they were originally discharged;
They are made available free of charge or at only marginal costs for their reproduction and disclosure, except in exceptional cases that are transparent and clearly identified by the data controlling authorities together with AgID.
4.1.2.1. The current situation¶
Most PAs continue in activities aimed at making open and free re-use of some public data they manage. However, there are situations where no particular evolution has occurred over the years. In this context, it is noted that the quality of the data displayed is not yet of a good standard, except in a few virtuous cases. In particular, the data are not always up to date and some initiatives are apparently abandoned. Even from the point of view of documentation and metadata the situation is insufficient. The frequent lack of automation and consequent manual updating of data, the low presence of national and API standards, the adoption of various licences, sometimes incompatible with each other, are factors which hinder wider reuse of data.
4.1.2.2. Strategic objectives¶
Identify databases that can be made available according to open datasets consistent with the areas described in chapter 6 “Ecosystems”.
Define and apply standards for generation, update and metadata of databases and promote their adoption by central and local administrations.
Open data bases according to a clear release plan, utilising the data automation and data management capabilities provided by the Data & Analytics Framework.
To make available as open-source data those that can have a strong impact on civil society and businesses by ensuring compliance with quality requirements as defined by ISO / IEC 25012 Data quality model and encouraging the release of APIs associated with them.
Monitor constantly (i) the adoption of Guidelines for the enhancement of public information assets [50], (ii) the achievement of the objectives of the opening process, (iii) the satisfaction of opening requests from civil society, (iv) the quality of the data released, and (v) the presence of APIs.
4.1.2.3. Lines of action¶
The strategy for achieving these objectives focuses on the adoption of *protocol* [51] defined within the working group “Data and Open Data Management” of the Steering Committee set up under the Department of Public Services for the coordination of OT11 and OT2 interventions made under the Italian Partnership Agreement.
The strategy also provides:
Ongoing monitoring of the actions envisaged in the aforementioned Protocol to prepare an annual report on the enhancement of public information assets and to respond to the requests of the European Commission in the context of the implementation of the PSI 2.0 (Public Sector Information) Directive;
The construction of a dedicated product that allows the generation and distribution of standardised information, including through the tools of data visualisation and themed dashboards, and the availability of APIs for direct data query;
Making it available to all PAs open tools and platforms that will encourage the reuse of already available software and the adoption of best practices.

The information regarding the opening requests of datasets by civil society;
Information on opening commitments coming from institutional initiatives such as, for example, Open Government Partnership (OGP);
The reports of key datasets that PA intends to make available in open data according to their plans of release and respecting what is generally provided in the basket itself.
Attachment 5 “Open data database basket” represents a first set of datasets and a first monitoring action. The basket was prepared considering all the datasets included in the agendas for the enhancement of the public information assets of the years 2013, 2014 and 2015, as well as datasets deriving from international initiatives (e.g. Open Data Charter, Open Government Partnership), from release plans of some Regions and central PAs and some civil society demands emerging following official public consultations.
Result Dynamic Dataset Basket (release date: February of each year)
Subject Open Data Monitoring (Annual Report on the enhancement of Public Information Assets)
Players AgID and Department of Public Services, all PAs
AgID uses the Dynamic Basket as the basis for carrying out monitoring actions envisaged in the context of the 2014-2020 Partnership Agreement [53] of art. 52 of the CAD and the implementation of the European Directive PSI 2.0 (Public Sector Information).
In particular, AgID defines and maintains an up-to-date monitoring indicator (which also considers open data quality aspects) and prepares the Report for the Enhancement of Public Information Assets (Art. 52 of the CAD).
By January of each year, AgID submits the report to the Department of Public Service that will approve it by February. AgID Publishes the Report in open data on its institutional site and on data.gov.it.
Result Monitoring Report (release date: February of each year)
4.1.3. Controlled vocabulary and data models¶
In order to facilitate the process of data exchange between public administrations it is necessary to:
Harmonise and standardise recurring codes and nomenclatures in controlled vocabularies to be used in the implementation of public databases. Controlled vocabularies are therefore useful resources to initiate the standardisation process of the PA’s data and to provide to businesses and private reference points for the populations of their databases;
Identify and define data models (ontologies) that are shared in particular for cross-data across different application domains (e.g. people, organisations, services, places).
4.1.3.1. The current situation¶
The *initiatives at European* [54] and national level conducted in the context of the PA data base surveys highlight the need to define controlled vocabularies and shared data models (ontologies). For metadata profiles of data and services, AgID has already created and identified reference ontologies and a series of controlled vocabularies for use in the Italian context.
For some controlled vocabulary, it is necessary to keep track of the temporal evolution. Consider, for example, that there are no controlled vocabularies that allow a reconstruction of the historical evolution of the names of Italian municipalities or foreign states. While some initiatives to fill these gaps have already begun, it is necessary to define how to update and deliver vocabularies in order to make them a strategic asset.
4.1.3.2. Strategic objectives¶
Identify and / or define reference data (ontologies) databases, in particular for cross-data across the different application domains and key databases identified in the actions provided in Section 4.1.3, also utilising specific competences from the research world.
As part of the new data.gov.it, as described above, provide a publicly accessible list by API, which references the controlled vocabularies and reference ontologies.
Provide for each controlled vocabulary and data model the identification of a responsible entity that ensures its maintenance.
Manage the Historicisation of Vocabularies.
4.1.3.3. Lines of action¶
The implementation of the ontologies and the public list contained in the new data.gov.it is carried out by AgID, which identifies both controlled vocabularies (from those internationally recognised and usable in the Italian context), as well as Public Administrations that represent authoritative sources for the vocabularies and ontologies controlled by them. Along with these administrations, AgID establishes how to update and publish controlled vocabularies and ontologies.
Subject Implementation of the Register of Vocabularies and Data Models
Players AgID and other PAs
The following activities are carried out for the implementation of the Register of Vocabularies and data models:
Analysis of reference ontologies and controlled vocabulary for the PA;
Definition of reference ontologies for the key data bases identified in 4.1.3 and for cross-data to different application domains (eg places and organisations);
Publishing ontologies and vocabularies controlled through the new data.gov.it;
Analysis of needs and resources already available;
Identifying a first set of controlled vocabularies and their related owners;
Definition of the register
Result Release the first version of the register (Release date: January 2018)
Subject Implementation of the Register of Controlled Vocabularies and Data Models
The PAs owners of national interest databases, as defined in art. 60 of CAD, are required to standardise data based on the resources contained in the Registered Vocabulary Register and Data Models.
The other PAs initiate a process of standardising their data based on the resources contained in the controlled vocabularies and data models.
4.2. Enabling platforms¶
Enabling Platforms are solutions that offer key, transversal, and reusable functionality in individual projects, by standardising their delivery methods. They remove from administrations the need to purchase and / or implement common features across multiple software systems, simplifying design, reducing the time and cost of creating new services, and providing greater IT security. Some examples addressed to citizens and businesses are identification, billing and payment services. Other platforms are mainly addressed to the PA but are equally enabling, such as the National Resident Population Register (ANPR).
In this way it will be easier for administrations to offer citizens and businesses a more uniform and simpler way of interaction and collaboration.
4.2.1. The current situation¶
The Enabling Platforms process has already begun. Some platforms are already operational, but not yet used by all administrations, others are under construction or planning.
Enabling Platforms that accelerate and standardise the development of digital services for the citizen and the company and which operate at numerous administrations are highlighted:
***CIE*** [55] (Electronic Identity Card): Identity document with elements for the physical identification of the holder, issued on computer support by the municipal authorities, with the prevailing purpose of showing the identity of its holder;
***SPID*** [56] (Public Identity System): an authentication system that, through credentials classified on three levels of security, enables access to services to which it provides certified identification data;
***PagoPa*** [57] (Electronic Payment Management to the PA): a system that interconnects all payment service providers with public administrations and allows the citizen to make the payment by choosing the preferred instrument and entity. The system also provides PAs with automatic reconciliation and reporting;
***Electronic invoicing*** [58]: Handles PA’s passive billing and allows administrations to optimize internal processes by integrating the electronic invoice into accounting processes and enabling automation of the order cycle;
***ANPR*** [59] (National Register of resident population): the central registry of all citizens and residents in Italy. It contains the personal data, the addresses of residence and domicile (physical and digital) and represents the reference archive of natural persons for all other national systems (migration from local registry to the central registry).
Among the Enabling Platforms under design are listed:
ComproPA: National system of e-procurement which interconnects, in interoperable mode, all players in the process of e-procurement by ensuring the management, digitalization and governance of the entire public procurement lifecycle in compliance with the Procurement Code and European Directives’ provisions;
Notice system and courtesy notification: a system, in conformity with the eIDAS provisions [60], allowing citizens to receive and send notices and courtesy notifications, also with legal validity, in digital format, to and from the entire PA, ensuring traceability, integrity, confidentiality and non-repudiation;
SIOPE+: Evolution of the SIOPE system (Useful for cash flow management) aimed at ensuring the analysis and evaluation of expenditure, monitoring and control of public accounts and promoting the implementation of fiscal federalism through harmonization and standardization of schemes and data flows;
NoiPA: Evolution of the current system of staff management who provides salary services to the PA, which will add functionality to the management of non-economic components of the staff, also in support of the recent PA reform (Law 124/2015 “Delegations to the Government on the Reorganisation of public Administrations”);
National administrative procedures management system: Guarantees digital communication between citizens and Public Administration through the digital home office. It permits the dematerialisation of administrative procedures, thus contributing to the realisation of a cooperative system between administrations that makes the document flows between them interoperable, resulting in unitary data management, events and unstructured IT documents;
Conservation poles: Public Administration system for the provision of document retention services, with the involvement of the Central State Archives which permits the permanent storage of Public Administration digital archives.
4.2.2. Strategic objectives¶
Complete the implementation of Enabling Platforms and promote their adoption.
Enhance existing Enabling Platforms by improving or adding new features, constantly adapting the technology used and the level of security.
Implement the Enabling Platforms already designed.
Identify and implement any new Enabling Platforms that act as accelerators for the PA digitisation process.
4.2.3. Lines of action¶
AgID produces and maintains the list of Enabling Platforms. They will be candidates to become Enabling Platforms, new or existing solutions that implement basic and transversal capabilities for Public Administrations.
Planning for the implementation of individual Platforms is conditioned by aspects such as:
Set-up costs (including platform implementation costs and migration / adaptation costs incurred by PAs accruing to the Platform) and running costs;
The overall savings resulting from the adoption of the Platforms;
The potentials introduced by the Platforms themselves in terms of new digital services to be delivered to citizens, businesses and PAs.
During the implementation and the operation of the Platforms, the public authorities responsible for it ensure: (i) coordination between the various initiatives, in order to promote consistency between all actions; (Ii) the monitoring of each project in order to enhance the experience gained in the previous initiatives; (Iii) technical compliance with the Interoperability Model and evolutionary adjustments resulting from the issuance of new rules; (Iv) operational continuity and adequate performance levels; (V) system security.
Public Administrations follow the instructions in Chapter 12 “Public Administration Guidelines” as far as the costs of adapting and implementing applications that require functionality from the Enabling Platforms (e.g. enhancement of digital payment or Authentication services).
In the specific systems of e-procurement, Administrations that are not already in possession of electronic platforms for trading will not be able to invest in the development of new platforms in contrast to the general principles and, in particular, the technical rules issued by AgID. See the cited Chapter 12 for more details.
Continuing with existing activities for the implementation of the Agenda for simplification, the overall architecture of business services will be defined by identifying components and their interfaces in accordance with the PA Interoperability Model.
