Complimentary CIO listing valued at $150 if you purchase budget IT prior to 16 June

The Victorian state budget, released on Tuesday 5 May, features an allocation of nearly $400 million to projects with an ICT component in 2010-11.

A significant portion of ICT spending will go towards continuing major projects at the Department of Transport.  For example, over $80 million will be spent on the closing stages of the Myki ticketing solution, which has an overall price-tag of $461 million.

Several new initiatives are focused on strategies that will protect against a repetition of 2009’s Black Saturday disaster.  The Department of Primary Industries will receive $420,000 in 2010-11 to develop an IT infrastructure that would inform a contingency plan for the coordination and mobilisation of resources if another natural disaster were to hit Victoria.

$250,000 will go towards increasing the capacity of the Victorian Bushfire Information Line, so that it will be able to handle increased use on high fire-dangers days.  This project will be worth $500,000 in its entirety.

Intermedium’s forensic analysis of the budget papers will uncover the ICT opportunities within this very substantial capital investment and their opportunities for the ICT industry.

• Where are the opportunities?
• Which agencies have received significant new funding and for what?
• What are the ICT implications?
• Where to focus and on what?
• How much, for what, where and when?

This budget briefing will be a closed door session and more information will be released soon.
