Social responsibility

Using technology to uplift Africa

Social responsibility

Q3 has been a shining light in the South African B-BBEE IT initiative with our focus on social responsibility.

Being a wholly black owned company, we are passionate about creating and delivering applications with its primary focus on alleviating the plight of the disempowered.

We believe in Africans providing intelligent solutions for Africa and with our people development initiatives we are aiming at doing just that.

Projects that put technology to work for people

Facilities and Resource Management
Facilities and Resource Management
Vision: To grow and develop a network of FARMS centres across Africa, that provides affordable administrative, training and strategic planning facilities to small businesses in the service sector, thereby empowering communities. What is a FARM: Fully serviced premises with Administrative FacilitiesBusiness and Strategic PlanningCapacity BuildingSkills Development and TrainingInformation TechnologyNetworking with other Businesses
Central Marriage Database
Central Marriage Database
Vision: To develop, implement and administer a central marriage database for the south african disadvantaged communities. Why a CMD ? With the advent of certain marriages not recognised via the current legal system, millions of South Africans find themselves without a legal contract. For many years these contracts have been managed manually by community leaders, however, this process is proving to be prone to fraud etc. Status The database has been developed and implemented and is currently been piloted with a few selected leaders, before rolling this system out nationally.
Case Management System
Case Management System
Vision: To develop and implement a national central database for all social welfare cases, allowing a networked group of social services agents across the country. This will allow ease of administration, prevention of fraud and negative repetitive behaviour by the same parties. Status: The application has been piloted by a few selected welfare organisations.
Gravesite management system
Gravesite management system

Living Technology

Built into how we work every day

Q3 is a solution provider that prides itself in the energy they bring to their social responsibility initiatives.

"Living Technology" is not just a slogan. It is woven into the very fabric of our daily life.

It is etched into the minds of our developers and indeed our management.

Our vision is "Using Technology to Uplift Africa".

We have since inception dedicated resources to building applications that improve the operational and strategic difficulties experienced in public administrative and operational systems and processes.

We are continuously looking for ideas, concepts or upliftment projects that we could play a role.

The pro-bono projects Q3 are involved in are:

  • Social Welfare Case Management System
  • FARMS – Facilities and Resourcing Management Systems
  • Linux Tuxlabs
  • Student Course Management System
  • Central Marriage Database
  • Gravesite management system

In addition Q3 have developed several web sites for various non-profit organisations.

To be able to develop technology that would directly benefit the poorest of the poor has indeed been a cornerstone vision of our company.
