  Fighting climate change

  Sundown approach to cloud services leverage energy-efficient infrastructure that significantly reduces carbon footprints compared to traditional IT setups. By utilising advanced virtualisation technologies, we minimise physical hardware requirements and energy consumption. Our commitment to sustainability is further demonstrated through our use of renewable energy sources and cooling efficiencies in our data centres, ensuring that our operations contribute to the global effort of fighting climate change. This not only aids in reducing environmental impact but also aligns with public sector goals to promote eco-friendly technologies.

  Covid-19 recovery

  In the wake of COVID-19, our cloud solutions empower remote workforces by providing robust, scalable, and secure online platforms that facilitate efficient remote operations. We offer tools that enhance collaboration and productivity, supporting public sector entities as they adapt to new ways of working. Additionally, our cloud infrastructure allows for rapid scaling and flexibility, essential for responding to health emergencies and fluctuating demands, thus aiding in a smoother recovery from the pandemic.

  Tackling economic inequality

  We are dedicated to tackling economic inequality by promoting access to technology across various socioeconomic groups. Our cloud services support a range of economic activities, enabling small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and non profits to access high-quality IT resources at a reduced cost. By offering tiered service options and training programmes, we facilitate technological empowerment and skill development, contributing to economic resilience and equality.

  Equal opportunity

  Our commitment to equal opportunity is reflected in our approach to service provision and employment. We ensure that our services are accessible to all public sector organisations, regardless of size or location, promoting digital inclusion. Our recruitment and staffing policies are rigorously fair and inclusive, supporting a diverse workforce that brings a wide range of perspectives and ideas to our operations, thereby enhancing innovation and service delivery.

  Wellbeing

  Recognising the importance of wellbeing, our cloud solutions aim to improve the work-life balance by offering flexible, user-friendly tools that reduce operational stress. Our services ensure data security and reliability, which in turn decreases workload and anxiety for IT staff within public sector organisations. Moreover, by enabling teleworking, our cloud platforms help organisations support their employees' mental and physical health by offering them more control over their work environments.
