Oracle renews Framework Agreement with NZ Govt

The New Zealand Government has renewed its all-of-government Software Framework Agreement with Oracle for secure cloud and technology services. The whole-of-government contract, led by the Te Tari Taiwhenua Department of Internal Affairs (DIA), enables all government agencies in New Zealand to procure software licences, appliances, cloud solutions and services from Oracle under standardised terms.

Focusing on a ‘Cloud First Policy’, the New Zealand Government aims to streamline operations, create new delivery models and enhance citizen experiences. Through the renewal of this framework agreement, initially implemented in 2016, Oracle will continue to supply its cloud portfolio and services for Oracle cloud.

“We are witnessing increased demand for our solutions and services to support critical New Zealand Government-led initiatives. The renewal of this framework agreement is a testament to the value we are delivering and will ensure agencies continue to benefit from operational efficiencies and become intelligent agencies supported in the cloud,” said John Eastman, Managing Director, Oracle New Zealand.

Other government agencies in New Zealand have benefited from the previous Framework Agreement put in place in 2016, including the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA), which implemented Oracle Fusion Cloud ERP as part of its financial systems transformation in 2019 and Ministry of Social Development and ACC in 2022.
