Legacy and business acope
Singapore Computer Systems Ltd (SCS) was founded in 1980 and is registered in Singapore under ACRA. Over the decades, it has grown into a major ICT solutions provider, offering a suite of services including IT consultancy, managed infrastructure, systems integration, business process outsourcing (BPO), and network operations. Its headquarters operate out of the NCS Hub in Ang Mo Kio.
SCS serves a wide range of industries—from government and financial services to healthcare, logistics, and manufacturing. The company has also been an early mover in open‑source, grid computing, and Linux-based enterprise solutions in the Asia‑Pacific region. One notable project was its contract with StarHub to integrate the telco’s call‑centre systems, consolidating multiple sites into a single IP‑based platform.

Innovation and industry trends
In recent years, SCS has moved to address digital transformation and professional development in the tech industry. In 2023, it launched a digital credentialing system called STAR@SCS, designed to certify and recognise technology professionals. This initiative reflects a broader shift in the ICT industry towards skills validation, talent development, and workforce upskilling.
The larger ICT services sector in Singapore and the region faces intense competition—from global cloud providers, boutique digital consultancies, and emerging tech firms. SCS must continually innovate its infrastructure offerings, including cloud, managed services, and hybrid solutions, to remain relevant. The rising adoption of digital government services, data analytics, and artificial intelligence is increasing demand for secure, scalable technology platforms.
Another challenge is cost management. As SCS supports mission-critical systems for large organisations, it must balance investments in infrastructure with margins, while also navigating regulatory pressures and cybersecurity risks. At the same time, clients expect leaner, more flexible delivery models.
To meet these demands, SCS is leveraging its long-standing relationships and technical expertise, combining legacy systems with modern cloud capabilities. By offering both traditional systems-integration and modern digital solutions, SCS is positioning itself as a bridge between legacy enterprises and tomorrow’s digital-first world.
