Information and Computing Center (ITC), which acts in submission of the Ministry of Digital Development and Transport (MRRT), united with another institution of the Ministry – Azintelecom LLC. Azintelecom LLC, reorganized by the merger of two institutions, will apply corporate standards in managing based on best practices.

According to the decree of the President of Azerbaijan of April 27, 2021, the organization, coordination and implementation of activities in the field of digital transformation in our country is entrusted to the Ministry of Digital Development and Transport. In order to implement the Decree, work began on the improvement of corporate governance and mechanisms for the use of state property in the subordinate institutions of the MCRR and the optimization of the activities of these institutions.

Along with the decree on the improvement of management in the field of digital transformation, a decree creating a “government cloud” (G-Cloud) and measures in the field of providing cloud services actualized the merger of two structures, as well as the reorganization of Azintelecom. The merger will allow you to optimize the work of infrastructure in the data center, to form state information systems and reserves in cloud-based cloud-based models, centralizing technical personnel to organize electronic services, optimize costs in this area and create a single mechanism for income control. Thanks to the reorganization of Azintelecom, innovations, which will be implemented in the data center, will achieve success of such initiatives as “big data” (Big Data), as well as the quick implementation of the “Smart City” concept and “Smart Selo” (Smart Village).

The new approach will facilitate the development of digital signature certificates. The concept of electronic signature, combining biometric authentication and cloud technologies, will provide citizens to a faster and affordable service.

Note that the merger will open the horizons to create new entities of entrepreneurship, allowing integrating technological systems, services and products. The Association of ILS, having the rich traditions of ICT, with Azintelecom, which has the leading digital infrastructure, will contribute to the effective implementation of transformation processes, and will also help Azerbaijan to become the center of innovation in the region and the development of digital technologies.
