Terabyte Becomes First Private Developer Granted Access to NCIT Codebase

In a landmark move to foster innovation and empower local tech talent, Terabyte Pvt Ltd has been granted exclusive access to the National Centre for Information Technology (NCIT) codebase, becoming the first private developer in the Maldives to receive this opportunity.

This historic decision follows an announcement by the Minister of Communication, Science, and Technology, Mohamed Maleeh Jamal, who emphasized that allowing private developers to build software applications for the government will create new revenue streams for young Maldivian developers.

"This initiative marks a significant step toward public-private collaboration in the tech sector," said Minister Jamal.

As a pioneer in software development and digital solutions, Terabyte Pvt Ltd is poised to leverage this opportunity to design, enhance, and deploy high-quality applications tailored to government needs. This access will not only streamline public service digitization but also set a precedent for future partnerships between the government and private tech firms.

Terabyte Pvt Ltd has a proven track record in developing mission-critical systems for the Maldivian government, including:

• Makudi System – A specialized portal for managing chemical imports, developed for the Ministry of Defence.
• Dhirithi Portal – An automation system for the Maldives Food and Drug Authority (MFDA), streamlining regulatory processes.
• Keplar HR – The leading HR software in the Maldives, trusted by businesses for workforce management and payroll automation.

The move aligns with the government’s vision of a digitally empowered Maldives, where private sector expertise complements national IT initiatives. Terabyte Pvt Ltd looks forward to collaborating with NCIT and other stakeholders to accelerate the nation’s digital transformation.
