Ahead of the Curve

Innovative – Secure – Forward-thinking

Combined, WA agencies spent AUD $644.6 million on Information communications and technology (ICT) payments to suppliers. Moves are under-way in 2012-2013 enabling agencies to migrate from a shared services to a decentralised ICT procurement regime. These ICT choices are also impacted by an imminent state election, scheduled for mid-March 2013.

How will WA’s political and ICT policy reforms develop in 2013-2014? How do you benefit from these reforms across the political divide?

Western Australian top-level public servants and other industry stakeholders are meeting with state, national and international peers to discuss, debate and deliver a 21st action plan to maximise the ROI from technology investments.

Key Facts

  • Combined, WA agencies spent AUD $644.6 million on ICT payments to suppliers during 2010-2011.
  • A decentralised ICT procurement regime in 2013-2014 places the onus on agencies to make informed decisions and choices about technology investments.
  • These choices depend on a successful development and implementation of technology strategies for 2013-2014.
  • State and local government agencies must adapt technology investments to manage escalating demand for services.
  • Risk management and corporate governance will play a vital role.
  • WA remains Australia’s economic and financial powerhouse. However, big-ticket ICT spending is under scrutiny — with a renewed focus on “back-to-basics” and cost-effective spending activities.
