Responsibilities

Background of the assignment SSC-ICT

To continue serving our ministries well, we want to further develop. We do this in interaction with our customers, 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 managed their own ICT workplaces for their civil servants – 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 SSC-ICT has been a fact since 2014.

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:

ICT must always be available and is increasingly crucial for the primary processes of these ministries. Our government colleagues work at different 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 way of working 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!"
