The far-reaching reform ongoing in the Northern Ireland Civil Service (NICS) offers an unprecedented opportunity for positive change. Productivity and citizen service can be dramatically improved with the support of enabling technologies that reduce costs, enable better collaboration between workers and make government services more accessible to citizens.

	The NICS choice:  eircom Northern Ireland is proud to have been chosen to provide Network NI, the £70 million, six-year project to deliver a comprehensive communications platform to power the NICS Modernisation and Reform Agenda. see Case Study
	Rapid rollout:  our efficient, on-budget implementation means that well over 280 sites will soon be linked into our world-class, province-wide fibre optic telecommunications network.
	Powering innovation:  our work is enabling NICS to deliver essential centralised services for accounting, human resource and records management. Like C2k before it, such initiatives will once again show Northern Ireland leading the way in the use of technology to transform the effectiveness of public services.     For further information on the overall Network Northern Ireland Programme click here
