Taoiseach Commends Viatel’s Public Sector Cloud and Digital Transformation Solutions

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar recently joined Viatel Technology Group in our Blanchardstown offices to announce the creation of 50 new jobs as we expand our cybersecurity platform. During his visit, the Taoiseach commended Viatel Technology Group for cloud and digital transformation projects that have played a crucial role in keeping Ireland on track in the digital transition.

 

Our Public Sector Partnerships

We are privileged to work with many esteemed public sector bodies in Ireland including the Departments of Education and Agriculture, the OPW (Office of Public Works) and the State Exams Commission. We are very proud to serve some of the country’s most prestigious addresses including Áras an Uachtaráin and the US Embassy. Viatel connects hundreds of primary and post-primary schools nationwide in partnership with HEAnet, as well as many local authorities nationwide.

 

I am grateful to Viatel for their work in helping the Government and its agencies to improve services for citizens including the excellent online passport renewal system and the digitisation of the marking of the Junior and Leaving Certs. Both Government and companies like Viatel have a crucial role to play in ensuring that Irish businesses and Irish citizens are not left behind in the digital transition.

Improved Services for Citizens

Examples of how Viatel has helped the Government and its agencies to improve services for citizens:

  • Access Leaving Cert results and appeals online: migrating the State Exams Commission to Viatel’s private cloud paved the way to digitise the marking, results and appeals process for the Leaving Certificate.
  • Apply for passports online: our digital transformation team is responsible for the software development behind the Department of Foreign Affairs’ Online Passport System which delivered over 1 million passports in 2022.
