A new template for digital sourcing

Tags:  Digital sourcing and ICT procurement (/taxonomy/term/25)
We’re simplifying contract templates to make it easier for government to source digital
products and services.
As part of our ICT procurement reforms, we are continuing to review our policies and contracts
to make sure they reflect best practice in a rapidly changing technology environment.
This week we released the Digital Sourcing Contract Template. This is the first in a suite of
model contracts to make it easier for government departments to buy digital products and
services.
The new contract replaces SourceIT Plus and is simpler and more flexible than the previous
template. By using the new template, those who are buying digital and ICT products for
government don’t have to reinvent the wheel each time. Contracts with government for simple
and semi-complex procurements will be more consistent for sellers.
Work is underway to update and simplify the other templates which are designed to be used
when purchasing hardware, software and consultancy services.
