Digital Marketplace now has 180 buyers
Nearly 250 approved sellers and 180 registered buyers have been added to the government’s Digital Marketplace technology procurement portal.
There are currently 244 approved sellers on the catalogue, including business analysts, developers, ethical hackers, digital transformation advisers and agile coaches.
There are 26 opportunities listed in the marketplace, consisting mostly of contract job listings for digital professionals. The listings have a combined value of over $15 million.
Of the 26 listings, only four are open — the Department of Health seeking a Drupal developer for a web transformation project, the Digital Transformation Office seeking a corporate storyteller for a Sydney event, the ATO seeking a framework to help understand how it designs and manages change and the Bureau of Meteorology’s digital delivery team seeking a digital user-centred service design function.
Early adopters of the Digital Marketplace for procurement include the NSW Government, the ABC, Tourism Australia and Melbourne Water.
The Digital Marketplace launched in beta in August with an initial list of around 220 sellers. It is deigned to transform the way the government procures digital and technology services.
