Why Certification Matters in Nigerian Public Procurement
In public procurement, a certificate is not decoration — it is an eligibility gate. A tender for a public IT project will typically require evidence of incorporation with the Corporate Affairs Commission, a current tax clearance certificate for three years, pension and industrial training fund compliance, registration with the Bureau of Public Procurement, and, for information technology projects above the prescribed threshold, clearance from the National Information Technology Development Agency. A bid missing any one of these is not scored down; it is disqualified at the opening stage, however good the technical proposal behind it.
Beyond eligibility, documented procedure does work that a reference cannot. A written estimating, change control, testing and close-out discipline tells an evaluator that the work follow a documented process that an external auditor checks every year, rather than depending on which project manager happens to be assigned. A written information security policy tells a bank or a health institution that the way we handle their data is governed by a risk-assessed control set with defined owners, and that we have been audited against it. Both are increasingly requested by private buyers too, particularly in financial services.
We therefore treat compliance as an operational discipline rather than a bid-time scramble. The Director, Public Sector Business maintains a registration and clearance calendar with renewal dates and owners; certificates are renewed ahead of expiry, not after a tender exposes a lapse. Every document in the due diligence pack is version-controlled, and a complete, current pack can be issued to a buyer within one working day of a request.
Registrations and Statutory Clearances
What the company actually holds, with the issuing body for each. Certified copies are released to buyers on request. Where a clearance is due for renewal we say so rather than let a buyer discover it during evaluation.

What we do not hold
We are not ISO certified. This page previously claimed ISO 9001:2015 and ISO/IEC 27001:2022, and those claims have been removed. We work to the disciplines those standards describe and will say so in those terms, but we will not imply a certificate we do not have.
If ISO certification is a hard requirement in your evaluation criteria, tell us early. We would rather lose a tender on an honest answer than win one on a claim that fails at due diligence.
On technology partner tiers
This page previously listed five vendor partner tiers. Those were not held and have been removed. Partner status with a major vendor is earned through certified headcount, delivered revenue and audited customer references, and it is trivially checkable in the vendor’s own partner directory, so claiming one you do not hold fails at the first search.
The organisations we do work with, and the platforms we build on, are set out under Partners.
How the ISO Management System Actually Works in Delivery
Certification is only useful if it changes what engineers do on a Tuesday. Here is where the management system touches an engagement.
Bid and estimate under a controlled procedure
Estimates follow a documented method with a defined approval path by value. Scope assumptions, exclusions and risks are recorded at bid stage, so what is later called a change really is a change and can be evidenced as one.
Risk assessment and security classification
Before work starts, the engagement is assessed against our information security risk methodology. Data classification, access requirements, hosting location and any NDPR obligations are agreed in writing and reflected in the data processing agreement.
Design review and sign-off
Solution designs above a defined value go to the Architecture Review Board chaired by the Chief Technology Officer. Departures from the approved technology list require an explicit, minuted decision rather than a quiet substitution on site.
Controlled build, test and change
Development follows the secure development lifecycle with peer review and automated regression testing. Infrastructure changes go through change control with a rollback plan. Every change is logged with a requester, approver and outcome.
Access control and least privilege
Engineer access to client environments is granted per engagement, least-privilege, time-bounded and logged. Access lists are reviewed quarterly and revoked on reassignment. Privileged actions on monitored estates generate an audit record.
Acceptance, handover and documentation
Acceptance is against the documented criteria agreed at design stage. Close-out delivers as-built documentation, configuration, source code where applicable, runbooks and completed training records for the client team.
Service operation under measured levels
In-life service runs to agreed service levels with monthly reporting of achievement, incidents and problems. Security events on monitored estates flow to the security operations centre with defined severity and response commitments.
Internal audit, management review and corrective action
Internal audits run to a programme covering every process annually. Nonconformities get a root-cause analysis, an owner and a due date. Management review each year feeds the Risk & Security Committee and, through it, the Board’s Audit & Risk Committee.

What is the exact scope of your ISO certificates?
Can we audit you, or send a security questionnaire?
How do you evidence local content?
Do you carry insurance and can you provide bonds?
