Evang. Verwaltungs- Und Serviceamt

What Evang. Verwaltungs- Und Serviceamt does

The Evangelisches Verwaltungs- und Serviceamt Neckar-Bergstraße (VSA), headquartered at Multring 26 in Weinheim, Baden-Württemberg, is the central administrative service office for 16 Protestant church parishes (Kirchengemeinden) within the Evangelischer Kirchenbezirk Neckar-Bergstraße district. Operating as a public-law corporation (Körperschaft des öffentlichen Rechts) under the Evangelische Landeskirche in Baden, it delivers both mandatory (Pflichtaufgaben) and optional (Wahlaufgaben) services including budget preparation, personnel administration, accounting, treasury and cash management, asset and debt management, audit response, and building consultation, all governed by §§ 21 and 27 of the Church Building Law.

The service delivery stack runs on shared ecclesiastical digital infrastructure: the LUKAS platform (lukas-ekiba.de) underpins the public website and communications, KFM-Web (kfm.ekiba.org) handles financial management, and Softgarden powers the Stellenbörse job portal at vsa-nb.softgarden.io. The VSA also administers the district's Kindertagesstätten (daycare centers), covering childcare operations and parent fee management, and is one of 12 Verwaltungs- und Serviceämter operating under the Evangelische Landeskirche in Baden.

The business model is non-commercial: the organization is funded through church tax (Kirchensteuer) allocations and mandatory contributions from the 16 member parishes, with no external pricing or customer acquisition. Governance sits with the Bezirkskirchenrat under Dekanin Ute Jäger-Fleming, and data protection is handled under the DSG-EKD framework aligned with GDPR. The reported headcount is 7 employees, and the organization is classified as a government/state entity rather than a privately held company.
