Clydestone outlines strategic plans

Mr. Paul Jacquaye, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Clydestone Ghana Limited has affirmed the organisation’s commitment to innovate, develop and support solutions that will address the business needs of its customers as well as set benchmarks in the West Africa ICT Market.

Mr. Jacquaye, who was outlining his vision and strategic plans at the company’s 20th Anniversary celebration held in Accra, urged members of staff and management to continue to work with a high sense of duty and professionalism to justify the confidence reposed by customers in their product offering.

“Clydestone is not only the foremost Information Technology (I.T) Company to go public by listing on the Ghana Stock Exchange, but over the years has been at the forefront of some ground-breaking technological innovations in Ghana.”

He explained that the company’s landmark projects and solutions include the installation of Ghana’s first interbank clearing and settlement systems for the Bank of Ghana (BoG) in 1996, which was the first of its kind in the sub-region.

Clydestone in partnership with Ghana Interbank Payment and Settlement System (GHIPSS) is rolling out E-Zwich compliant biometric Automated Teller Machine (ATM’s) to banks and savings and loans companies nationwide.

He indicated that with the migration of cheque-clearing from a paper-based regime to Cheque Codeline Clearing (CCC), the company’s solution continues to draw quality reviews from experts, customer-banks and other stakeholders in the industry, consequent to which the GHIPSS has certified its solution as compatible with the central system.

“In its avowed quest to move the frontiers of I.T-driven products in the industry, Clydestone in conjunction with TradeRoot Technologies of South Africa deployed an Enterprise Switch for Transaction Solutions Ghana Limited (TranSol). This enabled TranSol to launch Ghana’s first electronic voucher recharge system with the then Areeba (its premier client).

“Clydestone’s networking solutions are at the heart of data-centres of some blue-chip organisations across the spectrum of industries in Ghana.

“Clydestone premiered the first-ever remittance processing in Ghana - to process water, electricity and DSTV bills, collecting and processing payments through its subsidiary, Remittance Processing Ghana Limited,” he said.

The celebration brought together the board, management, staff-members as well as representatives of customers.
