Solution

The system acted as a governance and administration layer between internal government data and the interfaces through which that data could be accessed.

The architecture focused on controlling:

Identity / Consumer → Permission → API → Dataset

This allowed the platform to manage access according to authorized boundaries instead of making all datasets equally available to all consumers.

Technical Architecture

Vue.js SPA for administrative operations. Laravel handled application logic, access policies, permission enforcement, API services, and data-management workflows. MySQL provided persistent structured storage. JSON was used for API-based data exchange.
