iTMaster

iTMaster is a Proudly South African Business, which was established in 2001. We will celebrate our 21st year of existence in September 2022. The Covid 19 pandemic did present us with unprecedented challenges. Through its leadership, tenacity and prayer, iTMaster weathered the storms to emerge stronger, better and determined to be a business of impact. We remain focused on making a monumental impact in the lives of South African’s by democratising the access to technology in schools.

The 4th and 5th Industrial revolutions will work in tandem with 4IR bringing in high levels of digitization, automation, innovation and 5IR keeping us honest and ethical as we use 4IR technologies in the way we live, learn, work and play. At iTMaster, we are driven by innovation. Whilst many see innovation as the latest and greatest technology, we believe innovation is woven into every aspect of our business. We look for innovative ways to solve problems, drive efficiencies, eliminate duplication and enable our customers to remain relevant in an ever-changing global economy. This innovation is further augmented by our alignment to ISO Standards, Health and Safety Standards and Sustainability commitments.

Our country is still dealing with the residual impact of Covid 19, global economic pressures, the war in Ukrain, escalating oil prices and threats of nuclear war. This is further exacerbated by high levels of unemployment; skills drain and low GDP growth. Whilst these issues paint a picture of doom and gloom, we remain upbeat and energised to make a major impact in this country. This we believe can be done through Education. Nelson Mandela said, “The power of education extends beyond the development of skills we need for economic success. It can contribute to nation-building and reconciliation. He also said, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”

We pride ourselves in our agility and unique ability to scale. Agility, defined as the need to be flexible, is fundamental in an industry where 4IR is driving rapid evolution. Our ability to scale is built on one of our cardinal pillars of Enterprise Development, where we enable micro enterprises to deliver and execute in projects and opportunities as an extension of iTMaster.

iTMaster also makes a point of investing in collaboration and has created an ecosystem to work with EME and QSE companies in all nine provinces. We bring them in, train them, and inject the iTMaster DNA, which focuses on providing quality services, with speed and agility at scale, and in doing that promote true transformation.

We dream of democratised access for all South Africans, with a special drive to harness the future, which we believe comes from our human capital development. To date ITMaster have given access to more than 390 000 students across South Africa, and will continue to do so until, we solve this grand challenge in our local context.
