As we honour Women’s Month, we reflect on the incredible impact women have made in South Africa’s journey towards progress and equality. Women have been at the forefront of transformative changes, breaking barriers and leading the way in various fields, including ICT. We also celebrate the remarkable women in our Agency who innovate, lead, and inspire. Their contributions are pivotal in driving technological advancements and shaping the future of ICT in South Africa. Here’s to the women who empower, create, and excel—today and every day. #WomensMonth #WomenInICT #SITA #Leadership
About us
SITA was established in 1999 to consolidate and coordinate the State’s information technology resources in order to achieve cost savings through scale, increase delivery capabilities and enhance interoperability. SITA is committed to leveraging Information Technology (IT) as a strategic resource for government, managing the IT procurement and delivery process to ensure that the Government gets value for money, and using IT to support the delivery of e-Government services to all citizens. In short, SITA is the IT business for the largest employer and consumer of IT products and services in South Africa – the Government. Furthermore, the Act separates SITA's services into mandatory services (i.e. SITA must provide), and non-mandatory services (i.e. SITA may provide). SITA remains committed in all its engagements to adhere to the Government’s "IT House of Values", aiming to achieve reduced costs, increased productivity and increased service to our citizens.
