To efficiently achieve the envisioned objectives of the e-Sri Lanka initiative it is important that policies and regulations are formulated to make the best use of technology, effective utilization of latest technology innovations, ensure systems are build for interoperability adhering to open standards, avoid duplication of work, and promote reuse.

ICTA technology team formulated in September 2006 is primaraly responsible for providing the above oversight. Also the technology team is responsible for managing the ICTA internal IT infrastructure and IS solutions.
