Supporting Public Sector
We've been supporting Governments with our Managed IT Services since 2004.
Your challenges, our speciality. We understand what challenges the Public Sector face such as:
- Aging data centres, hardware, infrastructure
- Application performance for legacy apps in the cloud
- Limited redundancy and disaster recovery plans
- No testing protocols
- Restrictive licensing
- Security concerns
- No proactive support or continuous cost optimisation
We also know how government policies need to be implemented as well as the regulatory and privacy requirements to protect data and information.
Our Managed IT Services are designed to help Local, State and Federal Government agencies transform digitally to improve the lives of their customers and citizens.
Access our Cloud Services to accelerate your cloud adoption – from architecting and migrating ICT workloads to the cloud to the re-architecting or repurposing of legacy applications or have your data stored and managed in the best environment through our Database Managed Services.
Supported by a holistic and personal approach to solving business problems, we ensure our service delivery is aligned to your agencies’ overall business strategy.
Security is (y)our top priority
With security at the forefront of everything we do, we can work with your cyber teams to improve your security posture significantly. Whether it’s delivering to their recommendations and requirements or a complete digital transformation that helps you stay ahead of the shift towards scalability, security and resilience, we encourage you to find out how we can help you protect what matters most to your organisation.
You can also rest assured that all your services with us are always protected from event and service outages by our 24×7 monitoring tool, BlueDiamond.
