STEPS

STEPS (Chinese name 智新資通) is a Taiwanese information-technology company whose official website presents it as a provider of technology services for smart campuses and digital transformation. Its stated value proposition is to reduce the digital divide in traditional industries and to realize the maximum value of free and open-source software. The company describes its operating goals as customer satisfaction, shareholder satisfaction, and employee satisfaction, and its core values as Service, Trusty, Experts, Passion, and Share — the initials of which spell STEPS. The brand's own narrative explains the name as a belief in accumulating solid footprints and moving forward step by step. STEPS organizes its offerings into two main solution areas. The first targets campuses and the public sector, and includes website construction, the SMF mobile-campus solution, campus portals with single sign-on, smart IR school-affairs database integration, and system integration and development. The second area addresses enterprise solutions. This dual focus places the company at the intersection of education technology, public-sector IT, and general systems integration in Taiwan. The company's news feed shows active engagement with Taiwan's open-source and education-technology communities. Items include an invitation from the Yilan County Education Network Center for a teacher-enhancement and technology-application training workshop under the digital-learning advancement program; a successful bid involving the Republic of China Information Software Service Industry Association; participation in COSCUP 2026 in the open-source business model / open-source business ecosystem track; and a collaboration with National Taiwan Ocean University on an AI librarian service. The website also states that the company has obtained ISO/IEC 27001 information-security certification. Wikidata identifies Steps, Inc. as a company in Taiwan.
