Unveiling of the City of Laval’s website: a project by Vortex Solution
Vortex Solution is proud to announce the launch of the brand-new website for the City of Laval — one of the largest WordPress project ever completed in Quebec.
As one of the province’s largest cities, Laval is taking a major step forward in its digital transformation, launching a platform that is modern, accessible, and entirely citizen-focused.
A Citizen-Centric Digital Experience
Entirely designed and developed in Quebec, the new website delivers an advanced user experience (UX), a clean and intuitive interface, and streamlined access to municipal information.
The objective: to provide Laval residents with a functional, user-friendly website designed to meet their everyday needs.
A Strong Commitment to Accessibility
The site is fully compliant with WCAG 2.1 standards, ensuring inclusive navigation for everyone, including people with functional limitations.
Keyboard navigation, screen reader compatibility, optimized color contrasts, and a clear, logical content structure were all integrated from the design stage.
A Local and Eco-Responsible Approach
Staying true to values of sustainability and responsible innovation, the website is hosted locally in Quebec on a secure and high-performance infrastructure.
It also integrates byscuit.com, a 100% Quebec-based cookie consent management solution, fully compliant with Quebec’s Law 25, ensuring transparency and the protection of user privacy.
An Eco-Responsible Search Engine Built in Quebec
The website also features Findstr.com, a search engine developed by Vortex Solution that combines performance, precision, and environmental responsibility.
Designed to reduce the digital footprint of websites, Findstr.com stands out thanks to its lightweight architecture and optimized indexing, which minimize unnecessary server requests, improve page loading speed, and reduce overall energy consumption.
Locally hosted, it also contributes to data sovereignty and a more sustainable digital economy.
A Complete Suite of Municipal Modules
The platform integrates the Event Module, along with several tools from Vortex Solution’s municipal module suite.
Specifically designed for the needs of Quebec public administrations, these modules offer an intuitive, scalable, and efficient way to manage content and services for citizens.
This project goes far beyond a simple digital transformation — it reflects Laval’s commitment to serving its citizens with tools that are accessible, high-performing, and rooted in a long-term, sustainable vision.
A heartfelt thank-you to the City of Laval for its trust.
And congratulations to our entire team for delivering a project that truly reflects the excellence of Quebec’s digital expertise.
