Products
Application Services
Custom development, integration and support of business applications. Much of this work involves systems the firm originally built and has maintained for many years, which makes the relationships extremely difficult to displace.
datacomgroup.com
Datapay
Payroll software and outsourced payroll processing for New Zealand and Australian employers. Payroll legislation differs between the two countries in detail, which is why local specialists persist against global vendors.
datacomgroup.com
Cloud Services
Migration and managed operation of workloads on public and private cloud. The firm sits between clients and the hyperscalers, handling the procurement and accreditation parts that government buyers cannot manage directly.
datacomgroup.com
Data Centres
Owned data centre capacity across New Zealand and Australia. Sovereign hosting requirements mean public sector workloads frequently cannot sit on hyperscale infrastructure, which keeps this business relevant.
datacomgroup.com
Managed Services
Operation of client infrastructure, applications and end-user technology under long-term contracts. Government departments in both countries are among the largest customers, and those contracts often run for a decade.
