Previously, after many times of piloting and demo introduction, in September, with the permission of the Haiti Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Communication, Natcom has implemented the document management software called N-Office for the ministry to improve productivity.

Minister of the Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Communication Fritz Caillot said: “we are very interested in applying information & technology (IT) into work improvement. After Natcom’s piloting N-Office for the Ministry, all staffs are very satisfied with the simplicity and easy to use of the software, especially it can help us saving time and expense in work”. According to the General Director of Natcom Ha The Duong, Natcom is committed to continue accompanying Haiti in providing system and management software to develop projects related to e-government at this country. The project N-Office between Ministry of Public Works, Transport and Communication and Natcom is evident to the start of cooperation between Natcom and Haiti’s government. This also proved the vision of Viettel in establishing smart society, especially at developing countries where Viettel is present.
“Viettel has been accompanied with Haiti’s people when the country was still poor and faced difficulties after the historic earthquake in 2010. After 6 years of operation, Natcom has brought Haiti into one of the leading countries in Carribean region with regard to the IT infrastructure and providing with full services of basic telecommunication, increasing the rate of smart phone use at Haiti to 2.5 times. Natcom will continue accompanying Haiti government and is willing to provide technical assistances with regard to the software to the Ministry anytime” – Mr. Ha The Duong said.
The project N-Office implemented by Natcom for Haiti government can be seen as another successful story after V-Office, which has been implemented at Nam Dinh province and received positive review from the Municipal People’s Committee. This has proved that Viettel can provide not only telecommunication services, but also software to international markets. In addition to Natcom, other Viettel’s branches in the world have been operating in fields of infrastructure investment, telecommunication network expansion, providing solutions for telecommunication and IT for governments, especially in fields of e-government, one of Viettel’s advantages. For example, Viettel’s brand Movitel has become official partner of the National Communications Institute of Mozambique, of which public works are accessible to 100% Mozambique’s people. Other branches of Viettel worth mentioning are Star Telecom in Laos and Viettel Timor Leste (Telemor) in Timor Leste.
