We’re seeking feedback on a draft policy about using panels to source digital products and
services.
Over the past few months an exemplar team worked out of the DTA, researching how the
existing ICT Portfolio Panel Policy could be updated to better meet the needs of buyers and
sellers of digital products and services.
Along with the DTA, the team was made up of representatives from the Australian Taxation
Office, Digital Health Agency and the Departments of Defence, Finance, Human Services and
Home Affairs.
Research and engagement with buyers and sellers helped us to better understand the current
operating environment and identify areas for improvement.
You told us that existing panel arrangements can be inflexible, hard to join, complicated to use
and lacking oversight.
Today we’re releasing the draft policy principles for feedback to make sure it will improve the
experience of buying and selling digital products.
The new draft Digital Panel Policy aims to:
help agencies source digital products and services
help government buyers use digital panels
allow new sellers to join panels more often, especially small and medium enterprises
help consolidate panels and make them easier to use
We want to hear from anyone who works with digital (including ICT) panels. That’s both people
from government agencies and from industry, especially those that sell digital to government,
or want to in the future.
Read the
draft policy (/node/332) principles and provide your feedback
(https://engage.digital.gov.au) by 12 July 2018.
