Government Integrations

Executive Summary

Government Integrations defines the architecture context for SARS, CIPC, CSD, CIDB, COIDA, B-BBEE agencies, and future country-specific government integrations.

Why This Exists

Government and compliance authorities provide records that are often authoritative outside Algosure. Algosure must consume, validate, store evidence, and interpret those records without becoming the authority that issued them.

Owner

The owner is the Chief Product Officer and Enterprise Architect.

Business Value

Government integrations improve compliance readiness, supplier eligibility, tender qualification, funding readiness, and evidence management.

Evidence is timestamped	Imported or verified evidence must record source, timestamp, tenant, organization, and confidence.
Compliance interpretation is domain-owned	Compliance owns readiness, risk, expiry, and evidence interpretation where applicable.
Country-specific integrations are extensible	Future countries extend the integration model without duplicating core Domains.
Sensitive evidence is protected	Government records require classification, access control, audit, retention, and secure storage.
