SSC-ICT

To continue to serve our ministries well, we want to further develop ourselves. We do this in interaction with our clients, the ministries. Because we are the ICT service provider of and for the Government, and are proud of our public task and the large-scale projects that matter. The origin of SSC-ICT At the beginning of this millennium, all ministries provided ICT workplaces for their civil servants themselves – and independently of each other. To create one efficient and uniform line for this service, the various ICT organizations bundled their activities.

Over the years, there have been various compositions and names, but since 2014 SSC-ICT has been a fact. Where are we now? SSC-ICT has grown into an organization of approximately 1,200 employees and contributes to a modern government with secure, flexible, and effective ICT services. We provide these services to the following ministries: - Interior and Kingdom Relations - Justice and Security - Foreign Affairs - Infrastructure and Water Management - Social Affairs and Employment - Public Health, Welfare and Sport - Finance

ICT must always be available and is increasingly crucial for the primary processes of these ministries. Our government colleagues work at various locations and on different devices: via desktop and laptop, but also on tablet and smartphone. Speed and flexibility are becoming increasingly important. Providing ICT for and with the Government is a challenging task. The field of work is diverse and the security requirements are high. Where are we heading? SSC-ICT is growing into one organization with one face.

We continue to work on a transparent working method and optimal service delivery: standard where possible, customized where necessary. The ministries rely on our secure, reliable ICT services that are always available. The goal: to deliver stable ICT services in a rapidly changing digital world. "We do this by working together, learning from each other, focusing on the user experience, and above all, by enjoying our work!"

Additional Information

When you offer a professional to us as a supplier and they are placed, we will need information from you as a contracting party, including regarding the Chain Liability Act (Wet keten- en inlenersaansprakelijkheid). The purpose of the 'WKA' is to prevent abuse in the remittance of payroll taxes at all links in the chain; from supplier to client. We cover these risks for our clients through a blocked account, the G-account. This is an account to which a portion of the invoice amount is deposited and from which you can pay payroll taxes and VAT to the Tax Authorities.

The percentage to be deposited depends on whether you have a SNA certification (NEN-4400-1 or NEN-4400-2) and whether your company is established in the Netherlands or abroad. You can apply for the G-account from the Tax Authorities. If you cannot obtain a G-account (and you can provide proof of this from the Tax Authorities), you also have the option to submit an accountant's statement (assurance report regarding personnel lending) every quarter. In this, a certified accountant (AA or RA) will issue a statement about the correctness, completeness, and timeliness of the remittances.

Please note that the costs for this statement are at your own expense.
