Public Sector

Using technology to help government solve some of South Africa’s most pressing issues  

Reflecting South Africa’s 30-year journey of democracy, partnerships, and growth, Liquid Intelligent Technologies is a company with its roots firmly entrenched in Africa, with a vision of a digitally connected future that leaves no African behind. By partnering with the South African government to provide essential technology solutions, we’re proud to be playing a role in the country’s digital transformation journey. 

Technology-related challenges facing the public sector 

The cost of implementing new, reliable systems, along with the need to seek ways to improve cost efficiencies and return on investment are key for public sector entities. Having suitably skilled staff who are trained to perform the many different tasks associated with a modern technology implementation is also essential. 

Liquid’s cost-effective, scalable solutions leverage the latest technology trends. With our broadband solutions, businesses can focus on their core operations. Whether it’s connecting a school classroom or a mobile policing application, information can be captured at source, accessed on demand, and analysed using enhanced trending and business intelligence capabilities. 

Liquid’s comprehensive, integrated solutions tailored to Government’s needs  

Understanding that government departments’ need for end-to-end solutions, Liquid offers comprehensive, integrated solutions such as connectivity networks, cloud services, cyber security services, and data centre hosting, all tailored to meet the unique needs of National, Provincial, and Local Government departments. By outsourcing their ICT infrastructure and services requirements to Liquid, government departments are freed up to focus on their core operations and serve citizens better.
