From cloud-first to cloud-smart: Shaping the future of public sector IT

What cloud smart really means

Cloud Smart is about intelligent workload management across public cloud, private cloud, hybrid, or on-premises. It balances agility with governance, innovation with security and compliance, and cost-efficiency and value with control. Not every service belongs in the cloud. For many public sector bodies, factors like data sovereignty, compliance, latency, and cost demand flexibility. A Cloud Smart strategy recognises this, enabling organisations to alternate between cloud and on-premises solutions to meet their needs.

As a trusted partner on multiple key government OGP frameworks, Ergo enables organisational change through Cloud Smart adoption. We help public sector bodies assess their environments, identify cloud opportunities, and design strategies that deliver measurable outcomes. From secure migration and hybrid infrastructure to governance and operating models, we guide every stage ensuring technology becomes a catalyst for innovation, resilience, and better citizen outcomes.
