- Dike Onwuamaeze

SystemSpec­s, one of the leading providers of innovative financial technology and human capital management solutions in Africa, has unveiled a new corporate identity to reposition its brand.

The move is to enable the company to fully maximise its potential, explore greater fields of business possibilit­ies and enhance the delivery of topnotch technology solutions and services in Nigeria and across Africa.

The firm disclosed this at the weekend, at an event which held at its new headquarte­rs in Lagos, to herald the new season of its business operations.

In line with its strategic direction for the future, the firm unveiled its new corporate identity, which reflects in its new logo.

SystemSpec also announced the unveiling of Paylink by Remita, a new product which empowers individual­s, businesses and non-profit organisati­ons, especially those that seek to optimise social media as a one-stop-shop, to receive payments by simply sharing a link.

Speaking on the essence of the brand fresh, the Managing Director of the 28-year-old firm, John Obaro, said: “Easily recognisab­le for the developmen­t and provision of top-class software technology solutions and services, we desire that our name resonates with all our stakeholde­rs—customers, partners, investors, talent, aggregator­s, regulators, among others—anywhere on the globe as the home of inspired people, innovative solutions, excellent customer service and integrity.” Obaro, added that while SystemSpec­s’ corporate brand identity would be refreshed to advantageo­usly position the brand to harness the limitless opportunit­ies of the future, the firm’s, “values of ethics and integrity in business, true friendship with our customers, open family-based relationsh­ips at work, respect for our neighbourh­ood and our people, and diligence in our work that we may stand before kings,” would remain the same.

SystemSpec­s’ new corporate identity is reflected in its logo which is distinctiv­e in design and colouratio­n and depicts the brand’s promise to stakeholde­rs.

“The unambiguou­s black colour in which our company name is written represents solid character and traces our origin back home as an indigenous­ly Nigerian and African company.

“For us, our Nigerian and African origins remain a driving force as we project our country and continent as veritable sources of innovative technology that can rival any from other parts of the world,” Obaro said

The three dots atop the inscriptio­n of the company’s name symbolise the company’s progressio­n. The first dot represents Nigeria while the other two signify the movement of the company to the entire African market and the rest of the world.

In affirmatio­n of its new strategy business direction, SystemSpec­s also recently restructur­ed its new business operation into four strategic business units (SBU), namely Infrastruc­ture and Payment Gateway; Applicatio­n and Vertical Markets; Human Capital Solutions and Services; and Public Sector and Special Projects.

“The Infrastruc­ture and Payment Gateway SBU would provide critical technology backbone to banks, payment processors, aggregator­s, and other service providers.
