Overview

NCS Australia is the Australian arm of the Singapore technology services group NCS, itself owned by Singtel, and it was assembled from 2021 onwards through the acquisitions of ARQ Group, Eighty20 Solutions, Riley and several other local firms. It delivers cloud and platform engineering, data and artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, application development and managed services to Australian government agencies, banks, telecommunications operators and utilities. Headquartered in Sydney with offices across the eastern states, it employs several thousand people and competes against the global integrators for federal and state government work.

Products

Managed Services
Ongoing operation of client infrastructure and applications under agreed service levels. Government departments increasingly buy the outcome rather than the technology, which moves operational risk onto the supplier.
ncs.com.au
Application Services
Development, modernisation and maintenance of business applications. Long-running maintenance contracts are what keep the Australian delivery teams stably staffed between larger transformation programmes.
ncs.com.au
Cybersecurity
Security operations, assessment and compliance services for regulated Australian clients. The Essential Eight framework and critical infrastructure obligations have turned much of this from discretionary spending into a statutory requirement.
ncs.com.au
Data and AI
Data platform construction, analytics and applied machine learning for government and enterprise clients. Public sector data work carries residency and privacy constraints that determine what can be built before any model is chosen.
ncs.com.au
Cloud and Platform Engineering
Migration and managed operation of client workloads across public and government cloud. Australian government clients require certified local hosting arrangements, which shapes the architecture more than any technical preference would.
