What Fig Technology does

Fig Technology (Pty) Ltd is a South African private IT services firm headquartered at 28 Balmoral Avenue, Hurlingham, Sandton (Johannesburg), providing technology sourcing, supply, installation, support, and consulting to mid-to-large businesses in the Gauteng metropolitan area. The company markets itself as 100% women-owned and managed, a structural attribute it actively highlights, and organises its offering around four pillars: Sourcing, Supply, Installation, and Support. Service coverage includes Service Level Agreements, hosting and cloud solutions, wireless (Wi-Fi), MPLS, broadband, fibre, AD-Hoc support, infrastructure management, point-to-point and APN solutions, Microsoft licence management, printer repairs and sales, project management, and IT management consulting.

The firm's technology stack is built around two vendor relationships: Microsoft 365, where Fig Technology resells and supports the full SKU portfolio from Business Basic through Enterprise E5 plus Office 365 E1/E3/E5, and Mimecast, a 2022 strategic core partner providing 100%-SLA-backed email security, unlimited archiving, near real-time search, Outlook integration, and evidential email data. A website-hosted 'Microsoft 365 Decision Tree' advisory tool assists prospects with package selection. No proprietary software platform, mobile app, API, or SDK is described in any public material, and no AI or machine-learning capabilities are referenced.

Revenue is generated across three streams: IT consulting (professional services), hardware and software sales including Microsoft licences, and recurring managed support. Pricing is opaque and quote-based. Distribution is direct sales, via telephone (011 886 1000) and dedicated email channels (sales@, logistics@, support@), targeting enterprises in Johannesburg/Sandton. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, no parent company, no customer logos, no management bios, and no disclosed financials.
