Document access infrastructure — for individuals, businesses, and institutions Access, store, and retrieve documents anywhere through our platform and physical service centers

The problem

Individuals often need documents they do not have in hand; businesses and institutions hold documents and data that others cannot easily access. The problem is access: reaching whoever holds the record—a public office, private firm, or archive—and obtaining a verified copy.

The scale is large. Hundreds of millions across Africa cannot reach documents that were issued but sit out of reach—about 494 million people in Sub-Saharan Africa alone lack official proof of legal identity (World Bank ID4D, 2021). Conflict and disaster destroy records too: fighting in eastern DR Congo has damaged administrative archives, and widespread destruction of infrastructure—including thousands of schools in northeast Nigeria between 2009 and 2015 (UNESCO)—has wiped out documents and data that institutions and businesses can no longer easily retrieve.

Distance, borders, high costs, and slow paper-based systems then make any document request difficult, expensive, or impossible. Secure storage helps only after the record has been obtained; the first hurdle is getting it at all.

Document Access Infrastructure

We have created Tshijuka RDP, Document Access Infrastructure company — a digital platform and network of physical document service centers that enable individuals and organizations to access documents they do not possess, regardless of location; store them in a manner to easily and quickly retrieve them when needed; and obtain hard copies on demand through our physical offices.

Our centers also provide scanning, digitization, printing, and document support services, ensuring that records remain accessible, secure, and easy to manage throughout their lifecycle.

Tshijuka RDP addresses key document access challenges by facilitating affordable cross-border payments, strengthening document authenticity and trust through our trusted intermediary network, and supporting document issuing institutions in improving record management and digitization.
