In 2023, the Social Services of the Public Administration (SSAP) once again entrusted DataRoad - IT Services and Consulting with a network infrastructure project, this time at the Social Centre on Avenida Guerra Junqueiro, in Lisbon. The work refurbished the structured cabling and power distribution for the workstations and ended with certification of the entire installed network. A second award from the same public body is the best indicator of trust in an infrastructure partner.
Project overview
| Client | Social Services of the Public Administration (SSAP) |
|---|---|
| Sector | Public sector |
| Location | Social Centre, Av. Guerra Junqueiro, Lisbon |
| Scope | Structured cabling · Firewall and security · Servers and infrastructure · IT Unlimited |
| Year | 2023 |
The work carried out
- Complete structured cabling — new network points for every workstation.
- Cable trunking — organised routes for data and power cables.
- Racks — network racks installed and organised.
- Power sockets — installed next to each network point.
- Certification — of all the cabling, with a compliance report.
Certification is what distinguishes an installed network from a proven one: every point is measured against the standard and documented, which simplifies maintenance and any future audit.
Why certification matters in the public sector
- Technical compliance Objective proof of performance against the tender specification.
- Reliability Fewer intermittent faults that are hard to diagnose.
- Documentation Identification of every point, useful for whoever manages the network in future.
DataRoad’s experience with SSAP and the public sector
DataRoad works with eight public bodies and knows the rules of public procurement. For SSAP, it has also delivered wireless networks and a public tender for 56 Wi-Fi 7 points across three buildings. This Guerra Junqueiro project adds to that track record in IT network management, structured cabling and consultancy.
