Top ICT tenders: Eskom looks to lean ways of IT working

While the utility’s advertisement for an “Ignite IT – agility implementation journey” leaves much to the imagination, the tender documentation reveals the project could have far-reaching implications for the company and its staff.

The successful bidder will be required to assess the group IT target operating model for lean and agile capability alignment, as well as the impact of translating these capabilities into the functional business units, and the team role requirements. Following this, the bidder will develop a team establishment and migration plan, prioritising roles and responsibilities that are easiest to transition into and adopt.

The fifth requirement sees the implementation and maturing of lean portfolio management. This process includes updating and optimisation of various governance processes, as well as a portfolio management maturity assessment to establish a benchmark and identify focus areas. Notably, the documentation speaks to optimising delivery capacity allocation for effectiveness and not efficiency.

The last two requirements call on the service provider to develop a plan or roadmap to mature the lean and agile ways of working across the organisation post the project implementation phase, and providing promotional, marketing and training materials to promote lean and agile ways of working in the organisation.

The Eastern Cape Department of Transport is advertising for the supply and delivery of ICT equipment, accessories and consumables at its head office for a period of three years. The department notes it intends to utilise SITA contract RFB 740 to appoint accredited service providers. The Gautrain Management Agency is looking for a service provider to supply, deploy and maintain a public transport contact centre management system. The contract forms part of its Transport Management Centre strategy.
