Our Journey

2016 - The birth of the Shared ICT Service (SICTS)

 

Originally a service just focused on the London Borough of Brent, we sought partners to expand our IT service and create a Shared IT service.

In April 2016, the London Borough of Lewisham parted ways with its outsourced service and was integrated into SICTS.

2019 - Strategy goes live

 

In 2019 we launched our initial strategy, our first as a Shared ICT Service.

 

2020 - Design of restructure

 

In order to consolidate our expertise and further improve our service, we began to design a restructure in 2020.

 

2021 - Rebrand

 

Following a rebranding exercise in late 2020, we renamed to Shared Technology Services to better represent the varied nature of our work.
