Responsibility for Queensland's formerly stand-alone Technology Transformation Program has been rolled into the government's technology service provider CITEC.
State-owned ICT services vendor Citec will shortly bring in external consultants to develop a new business model as the Queensland-based group reins back services to the private sector in favour of government work.
The Queensland Government has gone to market for a smaller than expected raft of technology and services to lay the foundation for a centrally managed government-wide data platform, which it hopes will be ready by 2010.
Over $200 million in technology spending was laid out for Queensland Health in the state's budget released today.
The Queensland state government today outlined sweeping changes to the framework under which the state's internal IT systems are developed and governed.
Queensland interim state government CIO Peter Grant and CTO Bob Gurnett tell ZDNet Australia they're making progress on statewide ICT reforms announced last year.
Despite a changing of the guard in several influential departments and offices in the past 2-years (Health, Transport, Emergency Services, Police, Premier's, Public Works, and QGCIO, to name a few), the true identity of ICT influence in Queensland government still rests with the agency CIOs.
