Why we target the Public Sector
National, regional and local governments face more serious security threats than other technology consumers do. In matters ranging from national defence to protection of citizens personal data, national governments must place security at the forefront of their information technology requirements.
When it comes to financial management for national or local public agencies, not any old system will do.
You need a consistent and flexible infrastructure that can meet regulatory compliance.
Praxis Computing has for the last 13 years provided systems to such like public organisations and is well equipped to build the right solution using the Microsoft Dynamics GP platform.
We understand compliance regulations such as PFMA, MSA, MFMA, GAMAP and GRAP and the public sector’s business needs to meet diverse agendas including BEE, Transparency and Fairness.
