ICT Services Scheme: Adjustment to ERP Category Q

rationale:
  ICT Services Scheme: adjustment to sub-category Q05PTr

Sub-category Q05PTr - Expense Management Systems, under ERP Category Q on the ICT Services Scheme, has been re-opened to become Q05PTa.

 Q05PTr was restricted to suppliers which responded to a request for information (RFI) and were deemed to have met essential requirements (Offer Endorsed Providers). These restrictions were for a period of six months.

 These PTr sub-categories are now reclassified as an open PTa (‘a’ = accreditation) type offering, where suppliers will be able to apply on a regular basis, with the same requirements used in the RFI to form part of the standard ICT Services Scheme application process.

The sub-category will be classified as:

Q05PTa, which includes all Expense Management Systems (EMS).

 This sub-category will allow eligible buyers to select EMS solutions that have already been assessed as meeting essential requirements.

  ICT Services Scheme suppliers on Q05PTr

Suppliers which are currently pre-qualified for Q05PTr will automatically be registered for Q05PTa. No application is required.

  About the scheme

Category Q: Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and related corporate and shared services was first released in consultation with industry in July 2014. It now includes the following sub-categories:

Q01 - Professional services

Q01PTa - Services aligned to the NSW Government standard business processes

Q02PTi - Human capital management (HCM) or eRecruitment implementation partners

Q02PTr - Human capital management (HCM) and eRecruitment

Q03PTa - GovDC software as a service

rationale: PLEASE NOTE THIS SCHEME HAS BEEN EXTENDED UNTIL 28th FEBRUARY 2018

rationale:
The NSW Government recognises that there is considerable scope for improving how the public sector invests in and uses ICT to deliver services to the people of NSW.   In order to reduce duplication and promote a cohesive, sector-wide approach to ICT, the NSW Department of Finance, Services and Innovation (DFSI) has developed ICT procurement and technical Standards (the ‘Standards’).   The Standards establish minimum requirements for ICT products and services, and will be incorporated into the existing ICT Services Scheme.  The following five (5) Standards are now open for suppliers to apply against:

C06PTs - Migration Services and Cloud Readiness

D01PTs - End User Computing Services

G01PTs - Mobile Device and Application Framework

M03PTs - Document Management Solutions

M05PTs - Analytics and Data Warehousing Solutions

Sub-categories marked with suffix ‘PTs’, represent those which are aligned to a Standard.

DFSI is seeking suppliers on the Registered Supplier List or the Advanced Registered Supplier List, as defined in the ICT Services Scheme Rules, to respond to the Standards with solutions for inclusion on the ICT Services Catalogue.  The response will need to demonstrate how the service(s) address each element of the NSW Government Standard.

A copy of the Standards are available here:  https://www.finance.nsw.gov.au/ict/priorities/infrastructure-and-managed-services/procurement-and-technical-standards

How to apply:

Registered suppliers can apply by simply adding one or more of the above five capabilities to their existing profile.

New suppliers will need to apply for the ICT Services Scheme (Scheme 0020) first, then add the relevant capability they are interested in.

rationale: Additional sub capabilities were added. C04PTs, M09PTs, and M10PTs capabilities.

https://www.finance.gov.au/blog/2016/09/09/Accessibility-ICT-Procurement-Standard/

rationale: ICT scheme has been extended to 28/02/2019

rationale: Review of Scheme Rules Completed.

rationale:
ICT Services Scheme Rules have been updated, Clause 14 includes Core& Agreement (Low Risk) and new contract threshold. Inserted new rules to reflect buy.nsw registration process.

Below are some details and links regarding the Core&  Agreement

When should Core& be used?

Core& agreement (Low Risk) is for all ICT Procurement that is low risk and up to the value of $500,000 (excluding GST).

Why is it mandatory?

Core& agreement (Low Risk) is part of the Procure IT framework. NSW Government agencies must use the Procure IT Framework when buying ICT related goods and services. This is mandated by Procurement Board Direction 2017-02.

All information on ICT Contract templates can be found here

Refer to the ICT Services scheme rule which reflects the changes and the use of Core& here

Is there guidance or training?

DFSI held sessions during August/September for suppliers and agencies – if you missed out, you can access the recorded version of these briefing sessions here. For more information on key changes, please download the Core& agreement (Low Risk) Guidelines

rationale: The ICT Services Scheme has been extended, the updated closing date is the 28/02/2021.

rationale: Updated the ICT SCM0020 scheme rules and hae added the Core& Agreement Guide.

rationale:
 The Department of Customer Service (DCS) has reviewed current ICT Services Scheme categories and subcategories and decided to merge all the Procurement Technical Standard (PTx) subcategories in the ICT Services Scheme. Suppliers on the PTx subcategories have also been merged into the corresponding category supplier lists. All the affected PTx categories listed suppliers were consulted and notified of the changes.

 No action is required from suppliers. The consolidated scheme categories will be reflected on eTendering from today 1 October 2019.

rationale:
 Release of a new consolidated version of Core&

The Department of Customer Service has updated the Core& Contracts, which are contract templates available for the procurement of ICT/Digital solutions that are low risk and involve expenditure of up to $500,000 (excluding GST). The Core& Contracts have two easy-to-use versions: Core& One and Core& Combined.

Core& One is the original contract template (previously known as Core& Agreement (Low Risk)). Core& One should be used by agencies when procuring one individual ICT solution.

Core& Combined is the consolidated contract template that combines the Solution Requirements into one single document to make it easier for agencies procuring two or more ICT solutions.

The Core& Contracts Guidelines are now available to help you understand the changes.

rationale: From 15 March 2020 a Standard Commercial Framework will become effective, a question has been added for suppliers to confirm their acceptance.

rationale: Due to the current COVID-19 situation, the application processing has been delayed. We appreciate your patience. If your application is urgent please reach out to us via ICTServices@customerservice.nsw.gov.au

MICTA/ICTA ICT Contracting Framework for buying high risk ICT goods/services or a contract valued over $1 million (ex GST).

There have been no changes to the Core& Contracting Framework for low-risk engagements.

Transitional Period:

The ICT Purchasing Framework is mandated for use from 1 September 2021 however may be used from 1 July 2021, at an agency’s discretion.  Agencies and suppliers may continue to use Procure IT 3.2 until 31 August 2021. During the transitional phase from 1 July 2021 to 31 August 2021 suppliers are also required to agree to the requirement of using the Procure IT Framework Terms and Conditions for customer contracts as directed by the agencies.
