The Info-communications Development Authority of Singapore ("IDA") is jointly piloting this Call-for-Solution ("CFS") with government agencies to encourage co-creation with the infocomm industry with an aim to procure innovative ICT solutions. We would like to invite companies to submit innovative ICT solutions that address the requirements proposed by various participating government agencies.
Innovation is a critical tool in driving the economy and raising Singapore's competitiveness. In view of this, the Singapore Government will pilot a process to encourage co-creation with the infocomm industry with the aim of acquiring ICT innovations faster to meet government objectives.
The CFS will allow flexibility for the infocomm industry to propose ICT innovations based on problem statements provided by the government agencies. The process has also been streamlined to allow the same suppliers who have completed successful technology prototyping or proof-of-concepts to be awarded contracts for pilots and initial rollout of the innovations with the government agencies.
A CFS will be launched when a participating government agency issues a problem statement to source for innovative ICT proposals from the industry. The CFS process entails the evaluation of working prototypes and awarding contracts by stages to selected supplier(s) in a series of pilot trial assessments before an initial roll-out of the solution at the contracting government agency.
Please watch this space for future listing of projects.
First public briefing has been conducted on 31 May 2012 during "
