Digital & government projects

Digital & government projects for SMEs in Cyprus

Two fixed-price projects: paperless working that replaces manual, paper-based processes with simple digital forms and approvals in the tools you already own, and administrative preparation of government applications and company-registration documents — including IT grant and subsidy applications. Defined scope, starting price, no surprises.

What most companies want

  • Approvals and forms that move without paper or chasing
  • Government applications submitted complete, first time
  • A fixed price agreed before any work starts

What they fear most

  • A “digital project” that ends in new software nobody uses
  • An application rejected over a missing document
  • Open-ended consultancy with no end date

What a fixed-scope project relieves

  • Built in Microsoft 365 and the tools you already pay for
  • Checklist, completeness review and one round of corrections
  • Defined deliverables, a starting price and a handover
The evidence

Most small businesses still run on paper and inboxes — and pay for it in time

According to Eurostat, more than four in ten SMEs across the EU operate at a very low level of digital intensity, and only 58% reach a basic one — a gap of more than thirty points behind large enterprises. In Cyprus, the EU's Digital Decade report finds that one SME in four has not yet reached basic digital readiness. The symptoms are familiar: approvals that wait for a signature, forms retyped three times, and grant or registration applications that stall over a missing document.

ExpedioBridge closes that gap with two fixed-scope projects. Digital Productivity & Paperless Working maps your manual processes and rebuilds them as simple digital forms, approvals and task flows inside Microsoft 365 and the tools you already pay for — no new software to buy. Government & Company Registration Documents prepares one complete, correctly formatted application or registration file, including IT grant and subsidy applications, with a checklist, completeness review and submission coordination.

Eurostat, “How digitalised have the EU's enterprises become?” — Digital Intensity Index 2023, enterprises with 10 or more persons employed, EU-27 (dataset isoc_e_dii; news release 29 August 2024): 58% of SMEs and 91% of large enterprises at least at a basic level; 42.3% of SMEs at a very low level. European Commission Digital Decade country report for Cyprus, cited on the EU Digital Skills and Jobs Platform: “three-quarters of SMEs have reached at least a basic level of digital readiness”.

How a project runs

Six steps from first call to handover

A fixed-scope project has a defined start, a defined end and a price you approve before anything begins.

  1. A short call about the project

    Which process is costing you time, or which application you need to submit — and whether a fixed-scope project is the right fit. Online, by phone or in person in Cyprus.

    Free, no obligation

  2. A written scope and price

    What is included, what is not, and the price — approved by you before anything starts.

  3. Discovery workshop or requirements checklist

    We map the process with your team, or give you the exact list of documents to gather.

  4. Build or prepare

    Forms, approvals and task flows configured in your tools — or the application file organised and reviewed.

  5. Handover or submission

    Your team is shown how to run it, or the file is submitted where permitted.

  6. One follow-up

    A review once it has been used in real work, or one round of routine corrections.

Scope projects for operational efficiency and compliance

Each has a defined scope, a starting price and clear exclusions. Larger or more complex projects are quoted separately.

Digital project

Digital Productivity & Paperless Working

From €1,500 + VAT covers up to two simple workflows

Best for businesses whose approvals, requests and records still move by paper, email chains or retyped forms.

What's included — and what it does for you

  • One discovery workshop — the processes that cost the most time, identified with your team
  • Up to two workflows mapped — every step, hand-off and bottleneck made visible
  • Recommendations — what to simplify, automate or stop doing
  • Simple digital forms, approvals or task flows — configured in the tools you already use, so nothing new to buy or learn
  • Basic templates and one handover session — your team runs it from day one
  • One follow-up review — adjustments once it has been used in real work

Not included: software licences and subscriptions, third-party tools, data migration, custom development, complex integrations, legal or compliance advice, on-site delivery and travel.

Administrative project

Government & Company Registration Documents

From €750 + VAT per standard application or registration file

Best for businesses applying for an IT grant or subsidy, registering a company, or facing a government form they want submitted complete the first time.

What's included — and what it does for you

  • Requirements checklist — you know exactly what to gather before you start
  • Organisation of the documents you provide — one complete, ordered file
  • Administrative completeness review — gaps found before the authority finds them
  • Preparation and formatting of non-legal forms and schedules — from the information you give us
  • Submission coordination where permitted — plus one round of routine corrections
  • Status updates — you always know where the application stands

Administrative coordination only — no legal, tax, accounting or company-secretarial advice, no legal drafting, certification, notarisation or translation, and no government or registry charges. Acceptance and processing time are not guaranteed. Complex, urgent or repeated submissions are quoted separately.

Prices exclude VAT. Both projects are separate from the Standard and Premium support packages; any additional approved time is quoted before work starts.

For startups

Starting a company in Cyprus? One point of contact from zero to ready.

Founders setting up a new business usually run between a lawyer, an accountant, a bank, an internet provider, a hardware shop and a software reseller — each with their own forms, quotes and delays. ExpedioBridge's startup setup service brings it all under one point of contact. We plan the technology your new company needs, prepare the IT-related documents and registrations, and coordinate our trusted partners for company registration, licensing and the professional services that must be delivered by licensed providers.

From the first conversation to the day your team logs in, we handle the sequence, the suppliers and the follow-up — so you are not chasing five suppliers at once. You see one plan, one timeline and one person responsible, and your startup is ready to operate from day one.
