SG gov't agencies begin deployment of new infocomm project

By Enterprise Innovation Editors | Sep 18, 2009
The Singapore government recently started deployment of its SOEasy infocomm project to select government agencies, aiming to promote a working environment that integrates communication, collaboration and knowledge-sharing in a seamless process.

Among the first few recipients of the project include the Ministry of Finance (MOF), Ministry of Information, Communications and The Arts (MICA), Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) and National Heritage Board (NHB).

Speaking at the launch of the SOEasy Showcase, Mr Peter Ho, head of the Singapore Civil Service, cited that the SOEasy Programme calls for a coordinated effort and support from the Whole-of-Government. "Infocomm will continue to be a key enabler for the public sector, and the SOEasy Programme is another step towards One Government. The implementation of this ambitious project indeed marks another significant chapter in the history of Singapore’s infocomm journey," said Mr Ho.

Commenting on the SOEasy implementation, Mr Lim Hup Seng, Deputy Secretary (Performance), Ministry of Finance, said, "I am happy that SOEasy has commenced deployment. The SOEasy Programme is a major undertaking that will bring about many benefits for our public officers. SOEasy is conceived to make public officers more efficient and effective in their work. It is also a challenging project to implement due to the magnitude of the project, involving over 60,000 public officers across 75 government agencies at more than 800 locations."

The $1.3 billion contract was awarded to the oneMeridian consortium1, led by EDS, an HP company, in February 2008. There are three key milestones in the implementation of the SOEasy Programme:

1) SOEasy Transition

The ground work for SOEasy first kicked off in April 2008. oneMeridian went through a learning process to take over the functions of incumbent service vendors. The management of ICT infrastructure and systems at 62 out of the 75 government agencies is now managed by oneMeridian. Planning and preparation to roll out SOEasy services to them are now in progress. oneMeridian is working on taking over the management of ICT infrastructure and systems for the remaining 13 agencies.

A series of change management activities and communication is being conducted to engage agencies as they go through the transition. These included seminars, briefings, focus groups and user training to prepare and better familiarise public officers to the new SOEasy work environment.
