2007:2 Migrating a Ministry to OpenOffice.org

In December 2006, the Finnish Ministry of Justice decided to migrate to the open source OpenOffice.org office suite. The ministry and its administrative sector will also adopt the OpenDocument ISO standard for the file format of office documents.

After the migration, OpenOffice.org will be the primary office suite for 8500 persons and Microsoft Office for 1500 persons. All Windows XP workstations of the ministry and its administrative sector are installed with OpenOffice.org version 2.

The migration decision was based on office software evaluation in 2005 and an extensive OpenOffice.org pilot project in 2006. The main results of the office software study are presented in the report including the various migration options considered during the evaluation. In the pilot project, the functionality and compatibility of OpenOffice.org was tested in daily office use. In addition, the evaluation of training and support requirements, workstation installations and configurations were among the tasks of the pilot project. The results of the pilot project are presented in the report. The report also gives information on the current status of the OpenOffice.org migration process.

The report is to be presented at the Workshop on Open Document Exchange formats in Berlin 28 February 2007. The workshop will be held in cooperation with the German Federal Ministry of Interior and the Interoperable Delivery of European eGovernment Services to Public Administrations, Business and Citizens (IDABC) programme of the European Commission's Directorate-General for Informatics.
