Panel Arrangement for Infrastructure Support Services - Multi Vendor Environment
The Australian Taxation Office intends to establish a panel of suitably qualified and experienced providers of Infrastructure Support Services to assist our Service Operations branch on a range of projects related to the ATO’s move to a mature Multi Vendor Environment.
The ATO requires panellists who understand the demands and complexities of managing multiple vendors within a complex IT environment. Panellists will be expected to have a proven track record in the provision of the required Services within a Multi Vendor / Complex IT Environment.
Services provided under the Panel may include but not be limited to the following:
(a) Strategic design and planning
(b) Implementation of IT Sourcing Programs
(c) Developing service management process interfaces
(d) Planning visualisations in key strategic documentation tailored to specific audiences, including Operational, Executive and Service Providers
