Empowering Local Governance with Reliable and Scalable Digital Solutions
The City Government of Cadiz is taking a major step toward smarter, more efficient public service delivery through a strengthened digital partnership with PLDT Enterprise, aimed at modernizing its core government operations and enhancing citizen services.
This collaboration supports the LGU’s broader digital transformation agenda, focusing on building a secure, scalable, and resilient ICT infrastructure that enables faster coordination across departments and more responsive public service delivery for its growing community.
As a local government unit responsible for governance, public administration, social services, and infrastructure development, the City Government of Cadiz is prioritizing technology as a key driver of efficiency and transparency. Through its partnership with PLDT Enterprise, the city is laying the groundwork for a more connected and future-ready government system.
Driving Digital Transformation in Local Governance
The initiative reflects PLDT Enterprise’s continued support for regional LGUs in adopting technology-driven solutions that improve governance and service delivery.
“For us, technology is not about systems—it’s about service,” said Hon. Salvador Escalante, City Mayor of Cadiz. “This partnership helps our people experience government that works more smoothly, responds faster, and is better equipped to meet everyday needs. By strengthening our digital backbone, we’re making sure Cadiz is ready to serve its citizens today and in the years ahead.”
PLDT Enterprise also emphasized the importance of reliable connectivity in enabling effective governance.
“Reliable connectivity is essential for local governments to deliver efficient and citizen-focused services,” said Ma. Hazel Amoyan, Customer Relationship Management Head – Visayas, PLDT Enterprise. “By supporting Cadiz City with a modern and resilient digital infrastructure, we are helping strengthen government operations while enabling technology-enabled public service delivery.”
Building a Stronger Digital Backbone
To support this transformation, PLDT Enterprise is deploying a suite of connectivity and communications solutions across multiple government facilities. These include a redundant IP backbone for stable inter-departmental connectivity, always-on internet services for continuous operations, and IP-based voice systems to unify internal and external communications.
The setup also includes Power over Ethernet (PoE)-enabled VoIP devices for simplified infrastructure management, as well as monitoring tools that provide real-time visibility into network performance and usage—supporting smarter planning and resource allocation.
Enabling Continuous and Reliable Public Service
Before the upgrade, the LGU faced challenges such as fragmented connectivity and limited infrastructure redundancy, which impacted coordination and service continuity for critical government functions.
With PLDT Enterprise’s integrated solutions and 24/7 technical support, the City Government of Cadiz is now better positioned to ensure system reliability, improve operational efficiency, and deliver uninterrupted public services.
This partnership marks a significant milestone in Cadiz City’s journey toward a smarter, more connected, and more responsive local government—built on a foundation of digital resilience and innovation.
