Empired chosen for WA's GovNext-ICT
IT services provider Empired has secured an exclusive role within the NEC consortium that is supplying services for the Western Australian Government’s GovNext-ICT project.
In late 2015 the government selected three prime contractors, including NEC Australia, to provide infrastructure as a service under the GovNext-ICT contract.
Empired’s contract is for an initial five years with an option to extend for a further five years, and with an estimated spend of $15m over the life of the contract (inclusive of options).
“We are delighted to have been selected as a key player in providing services with NEC to the WA Government under the GovNext-ICT framework. This award is testament to Empired’s capability and investments in cloud based services,” said Russell Baskerville, Empired’s managing director.
“We are excited about this strategic and unique opportunity to deliver cloud services across WA Government. Given our ICT capabilities, Empired is well placed to provide broader cloud-based solutions as the GovNext-ICT framework evolves.”
Empired will have an exclusive role within the scope of the contract to provide the core collaboration functions in a cloud environment across the whole of WA Government.
This role will deliver a centralised directory service, centralised identity service and certificate authority.
The service will be provided on a per-user, consumption-based pricing model with all users that elect to use the WA Government platform provided the service.
