The Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) has revealed plans to overhaul its information technology and communications outsourcing contracts, which have been dominated by CSC since 1998.
The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) has dropped Telstra and CSC from consideration for its managed network services contract, worth up to $385 million over seven years.
The government has appointed David Butler as the new second commissioner of the Australian Tax Office to oversee its AU$700 million a year technology budget.
The Australian Tax Office's AU$700 million processing systems overhaul has been saved by the systems due to be replaced, according to first assistant commissioner Greg Dark.
After three years of losing large chunks from multi-billion dollar IT outsourcing deals, EDS's managing director Chris Mitchell is placing his bets on Defence to bolster the company.
A year from taking on perhaps the toughest IT job in the country, Defence chief information officer Greg Farr is staring down the barrel of a massive ICT reform agenda for 2009 that will reveal whether Defence got the "expert CIO" they needed.
