history

As part of the NeuFin administrative reform, which itself was part of the Moderner Staat Initiative, the Center for Information and Data Technology (ZID), which in turn emerged in 2002 from the merger of the various data centers of the Federal Finance Administration , and part of the Federal Office of Finance in the Center for Information Processing and Information Technology.

The ZIVIT belonged to the federal finance administration in the narrower sense ; it was not a higher federal authority and was referred to as an other agency in the organizational chart of the BMF division .

The aim was to create an economic structure in the long term and also to provide IT services for other federal authorities.

In May 2015, at the request of the then Federal Minister of the Interior, Thomas de Maizière , the federal government decided on a concept for realigning the federal IT system. As part of the first step, the IT service centers of the Federal Ministry of Finance (ZIVIT), the Federal Ministry of the Interior ( BIT ) and the Federal Ministry for Digital Infrastructure and Transport ( DLZ-IT ) were merged to form the Federal Information Technology Center from January 1, 2016 .
