MegazoneCloud to cut public institutions’ AWS contract period from two months to 1–2 weeks

[Financial News] MegazoneCloud is simplifying the process for public institutions to adopt Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud services, stepping up its push into the public-sector market.
The plan is to support public institutions’ transition to the cloud by reducing infrastructure contract periods, which previously took two to three months, to around one to two weeks.
MegazoneCloud said on the 12th that it had listed its “MegazoneCloud Brokerage Service for AWS” on the PPS Digital Service Mall.
The newly listed service provides public institutions with a total of 151 offerings, including AWS basic infrastructure such as servers, storage and networks, as well as services related to security, databases and artificial intelligence (AI).
Public institutions can adopt AWS infrastructure through the Digital Service Mall using negotiated contracts or catalog contracts instead of open competitive bidding. The company said this can shorten contract periods by reducing the steps involved, from preparing requests for proposals to issuing bid notices, evaluations and negotiations.
MegazoneCloud supports customers beyond supplying infrastructure, from pre-adoption technical reviews to system design and implementation, operations and monitoring, and cost optimization. It also provides architecture consulting that takes public-sector security standards into account, technology for connecting to public networks, and year-round technical support in Korean.
MegazoneCloud plans to expand the use of AWS in public-sector research and development (R&D) and digital transformation projects following this listing. It will also strengthen implementation and operations support for public institutions with a shortage of cloud specialists.
MegazoneCloud Vice President Seo Min-taek said, “By combining the procurement convenience of AWS infrastructure with specialized implementation and operations capabilities, we will reduce the administrative and technical burden on public institutions.”
