The Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA) and the State IT Agency (Sita) have teamed up with Hewlett-Packard South Africa (HP SA), CS Holdings, Microsoft South Africa, Telkom and Standard Bank to structure the Golaganang initiative.

Together, these organisations will give government employees access to a package of basic technology tools and services, including e-banking, at an affordable price. It is anticipated the project will allow the cost-effective distribution of technology to a broader segment of the population, stimulate a culture of digital learning, as well as help to transition the country to an information-driven economy.
