Local & Central Government

Customised ERP solutions for government agencies and municipalities

Predictiv Government delivers customised ERP solutions built on a proven enterprise platform, tailored for local councils, municipalities, and central government agencies. Government is by nature minimally commoditised—one size does not fit all, even within the same country. We build on our broad ERP foundation to provide highly customised, locally relevant solutions that scale to handle millions of transactions per month while offering convenient interfaces for all users.

Built for government entities in Africa that need enterprise capabilities without the enterprise complexity and cost. Fast to implement, proven to scale, and customised to your specific requirements and workflows.
