What Umbria Digitale does

Umbria Digitale S.c. a r.l. was a publicly-owned consortium company (società consortile a responsabilità limitata) operating under the in-house providing model as the regional digital infrastructure and platform operator for Regione Umbria in Italy. The company served shareholder municipalities, healthcare authorities, and regional public agencies, with Regione Umbria holding a 76.9% ownership stake and the remainder distributed across the Province of Perugia, municipalities, universities, and public health entities. It functioned as the mandated regional ICT partner under L.R. n. 9/2014, generating revenue through service agreements with public shareholders rather than commercial sales, and was structured as a non-profit in-house provider.

The company's technical offering centered on three infrastructure assets: the Data Center Regionale Unitario (DCRU), a geographically distributed data center classified as a Polo Strategico Nazionale and connected by 97 km of fiber optic for business continuity; the Banda Larga regional fiber optic broadband network; and the #WifiUmbria free public WiFi network with over 500 access points across 42 municipalities. On this infrastructure layer the company operated an extensive portfolio of digital platforms covering public administration (Login Umbria / SPID, PagoUmbria, Open Data / Dati Umbria, Gateway Umbria digital preservation, Apistore API marketplace), healthcare (Centro Unico Prenotazioni, Fascicolo Sanitario Elettronico, electronic prescriptions, Sistema Direzionale per Assessorato alla Sanità, SIVA veterinary and food system), and social welfare (S.I.SO social information system, recognized as a national best practice under OT11-OT2 reuse catalog). Certifications included ISO/IEC 27001:2013, ISO 9001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, and GDPR compliance.

Operationally, the company was a significant regional employer managing shared services across the entire Umbria public sector ecosystem — CUP booking system serving ~1,000 counters and 250 pharmacies daily, electronic health record ingestion from public and private facilities, and the COVID-19 emergency portal that processed 271,000 helpline calls. Under Amministratore Unico Fortunato Bianconi (appointed 16 July 2020), the entity completed a financial turnaround from a EUR 2 million deficit with eight-month supplier payment delays to a EUR 1.6 million positive balance. On 14 December 2021, in execution of L.R. n. 13/2021, Umbria Digitale was merged by incorporation into Umbria Salute e Servizi S.c.ar.l., which was simultaneously renamed Punto Zero S.c.ar.l., with the merger effective 1 January 2022; Umbria Digitale ceased to exist as a separate legal entity on that date.
