Local Partners
Through the Inveneo Partner Program, client organizations serving rural and remote communities benefit from lower total costs, improved support, and access to ICTs that increase their capacity to serve.
Contracting an ICIP or ITSE to design and install ICT solutions reduces average system installation and support costs by as much as 70 to 80 percent and overall project costs by as much as 60 percent, through a combination of lower local-labor fees and the elimination of Inveneo travel costs from the US. Local support also decreases service response times and improves overall service levels, thus lowering overall project risks for clients.
