The Landeshauptkasse Bremen is the central financial service provider of the federal state of Bremen, which, with around 180 employees, manages over 55 billion euros annually on behalf of the state and the city of Bremen and precisely processes more than 4.5 million bookings [4]. Its main area of responsibility includes the central incoming and outgoing payment transactions for all Bremen authorities, including the tax offices, independent companies such as "KiTa Bremen", as well as some municipal companies (e.g. Theater Bremen, Bremer Kliniken) [1].
The Landeshauptkasse is responsible for accrual and commercial accounting and also controls the payment monitoring and enforcement of all claims in the non-tax area and for the stadtbremische tax offices [1]. It takes over the booking of tax revenue and the determination of tax distribution for the state, municipalities and the federal government and is responsible for judicial money and securities deposits, guarantees, deposits and the support of the SAP administration systems of the Bremen authorities [1]. In addition, the Landeshauptkasse acts as a tax office for sales tax and other taxes and is the contact person for tax questions from citizens and companies [2].
The mission of the Landeshauptkasse Bremen is to ensure the sustainable economic success of the state of Bremen through reliable, transparent and efficient financial management. It attaches great importance to compliance with legal frameworks, such as the State Budget Code and Tax Code, and supports budget management through accurate accounting and payment processing in the public sector [1].
Sustainability goals are reflected in the promotion of efficient and digitized administrative processes, which contribute to the conservation of resources and improve services for citizens. The Landeshauptkasse relies on modern IT solutions such as SAP to optimize workflows and increase transparency [1][4]. Through responsible management of public funds, it indirectly contributes to the sustainable development of Bremen by creating financial stability and ensuring efficient allocation of funds.
Overall, the Landeshauptkasse Bremen presents itself as an indispensable institution for the financial management of the federal state, which, in addition to core administrative tasks, also fulfills advisory and support functions for authorities, companies and citizens. Its work ensures smooth payment transactions, financial transparency and compliance with legal requirements in the public financial budget, thus making a significant contribution to the ability to act and secure the future of the Bremen administration.
