What AGEDI does
AGEDI (Syndicat Mixte AGEDI, registration 257 705 384) is a French public consortium (Syndicat Mixte Ouvert) founded in the mid-1980s by elected officials from Cantal, Lot, and Lozère, headquartered in Aurillac, France. The organization provides the PROXIMA suite, a full web-based portfolio of approximately 15 integrated software modules covering the operational back-office of French local governments, including financial management with multi-year AP/CP budgeting (PROXIMA.FIN), HR and payroll with DSN event-driven declarations (PROXIMA.RH), deliberative assembly management (PROXIMA.ACTE), civil status (PROXIMA.POP), electoral rolls and JDC census (PROXIMA.CITE), GIS and cadastre (PROXIMA.SIG), multi-service billing (PROXIMA.FAC), water billing (PROXIMA.EAU), cashier management (PROXIMA.REGIE), childcare facility management (PROXIMA.ENF) with the E-neos parent portal, user administration (PROXIMA.CONFIG), electronic signature (PROXIMA.SIGN), and cemetery management (PROXIMA.CIM) with the Cimetière.fr public portal. The technical stack integrates with French government treasury systems including PES Marché, Chorus Pro, achatpublic.com, and the DGFIP-validated PES flows, and is GDPR-compliant with RGS** qualified electronic signature certification distributed via the SPCPF partnership.
The business model is a cooperative mutualization structure: local and departmental governments, EHPAD and similar social establishments become members (adhérents) of the syndicate and pay recurring membership contributions (cotisations) to access the suite, with services also distributed through regional public-sector technical operators (Opérateurs Publics de Services Numériques) such as ATD16, AT86, and APGL 64. Pricing is not publicly disclosed but operates on a tiered contribution grid differentiated by commune size and establishment type. AGEDI serves over 6,000 member collectivities across 90 metropolitan and overseas French departments, has roughly 50-60 staff, and is governed by elected officials including President Didier Saint-Maxent and Director General of Services Fabien Miedzianowski. Recent strategic activity centers on the 2023 rebrand of the legacy WEB range to PROXIMA, the 2024 launch and award-winning Cimetière.fr portal, the rollout of Proxima.BOT as a generative AI assistant across the suite, and a series of departmental-agency partnerships extending proximity-support coverage.

AGEDI competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Ciril GROUP: French public-sector ISV focused on HR, finance and citizen-services software for local authorities. Closely comparable to AGEDI in customer segment (collectivités) and product scope, and similar mid-scale positioning — making it the most head-to-head peer.
- AS-TECH: French public-sector software vendor serving local authorities with administrative, financial and HR solutions. Directly comparable to AGEDI in customer profile and product breadth.
- JVS-Mairistem: French vendor specializing in software for small communes and mairies, offering HR, accounting and civil-status solutions. Competes with AGEDI for the same small-collectivité niche with comparable suite-style packaging.
- Arpège: French software vendor providing finance, HR and administration solutions for communes and public establishments. Comparable to AGEDI in target market and functional scope, particularly for small to mid-sized collectivités.
- Numen: French public-sector IT consultancy and software provider (now part of Sopra Steria) focused on local authorities and public agencies. Comparable to AGEDI on custom public-sector application development and modernization services.
Regional players
- Civadis: Belgian vendor of software for local authorities (communes, CPAS, provinces) with similar functional scope to AGEDI's PROXIMA suite. Comparable product offering but primarily serves the Belgian market rather than competing directly in France.
Broad incumbents
- Docaposte: Digital services subsidiary of La Poste Group providing electronic signature, dematerialization and document management for French public-sector clients. Adjacent competitor to AGEDI on e-signature (PROXIMA.SIGN) and dematerialization workflows.
- Inetum: French-headquartered IT services group (formerly GFI Informatique) with a strong public-sector vertical offering software and integration to communes, departments and government agencies. Overlaps with AGEDI on finance, HR and citizen-services implementations.
- Berger-Levrault: Largest French public-sector software vendor, providing HR, finance, civil-status and citizen-services suites to communes, departments, and ministries. Direct overlap with AGEDI across nearly every PROXIMA module, but operates at much larger scale with broader portfolio.
- Sopra Steria: Major European IT services group with a dedicated French public-sector business serving ministries, local authorities and agencies. Competes with AGEDI on larger digital-transformation and integration contracts and has acquired Numen to deepen public-sector capabilities.
