Initiative
Develop and maintain a five-year ICT systems roadmap outlining priority projects and major system upgrade or replacement requirements as recommended in 'A plan for budget repair – final report'.
Overview
The ICT system stocktake information as described in a related action will be used as a base to develop a five-year roadmap across government's major ICT systems considering business needs, to identify the relative priority and high level plans to ensure the ICT systems can continue to effectively support government.
The roadmap will also identify digital systems or changes required to effectively support new government policies and programs and allow appropriate prioritisation.
Benefits
The ICT system roadmap will take some time to properly establish and will then be used to enable better long term planning from both an ICT and budget perspective.
The roadmaps will facilitate informed strategic investment decisions and development of industry capabilities.
