Why Enonic Is the Low‑Risk, High‑Compliance Choice for Norwegian CMS Procurements
Enonic’s Norwegian‑built CMS lands you ISO 27001 security, WCAG‑friendly templates, EEA‑hosted cloud, and an off‑the‑shelf SSA‑L contract—so you tick every compliance box and still launch on time.
Norwegian CMS tenders succeed when every box—including security, accessibility, contract form, and ownership—is ticked before the award letter goes out.
That’s exactly where Enonic shines.
Engineered for public sector compliance from day one, Enonic ships with ISO 27001‑certified EEA hosting, WCAG‑friendly tooling, and a ready‑made SSA‑L SaaS agreement. Legal and security teams can then sign off as quickly as editors fall in love with the UX.
See how each core evaluation criterion maps cleanly to an Enonic capability, letting you reduce procurement risk while accelerating project timelines.
Functionality & User Experience
Structured Content at Scale
The Norwegian Directorate of Health replaced heavy PDFs with granular, reusable content entities in Enonic, making guidance easier to update and syndicate across channels.
Real Time Visual Preview
Editors see exactly how a page will look—including personalized blocks—before publishing, cutting rework and training time.
Headless, Omnichannel API
Every item you model in Enonic is exposed instantly through a GraphQL endpoint, so web, mobile, and kiosk teams pull the same single source of truth.
Compliance by Design
ISO 27001‑certified Hosting Inside the EEA
Enonic Cloud runs in EU/EFTA data centres and holds full ISO 27001 certification, giving procurement teams a ready‑made answer to GDPR Article 32 and Norway’s Digital Security Act demands.
Choosing a certified vendor is a standard shortcut to tender eligibility and audit cost‑cuts.
Built‑in WCAG Support
Page templates, color contrast presets, and keyboard navigation tooling help authors meet every WCAG 2.1 AA criterion, aligning with Authority for Universal Design of ICT enforcement expectations.
Open, No‑Lock‑In Technology
Enonic and most platform components are released under GPL 3.0 or Apache 2.0, and the code is public on GitHub.
That means your agency can self‑host, switch supplier, or extend the stack without licence penalties. Unlike proprietary SaaS clouds that restrict export paths and APIs.
SSA‑L Out‑of‑the‑Box
The platform is delivered as SaaS under Norway’s standard SSA‑L agreement, already mapped to security, uptime, and data‑processing appendices.
Using the government template avoids months of legal red‑lining and lets you compare Enonic bids apples‑to‑apples with other compliant vendors.
