Information and communications technology (ICT): The SHR can provide expert advisory services in implementing ICT operating systems that reinforce the role of unified communications and the integration of telecommunications and computers, as well as necessary software, storage and audio-visual to enable SANParks to access and store information for effective and efficient operating systems.
