Description
Trade Agreement: NONE Tendering Procedures: Attachment: YES (MERX) Electronic Competitive Procurement Strategy: N/A - P&A/LOI Only Comprehensive Land Claim Agreement: No Nature of Requirements: INDUSTRY ENGAGEMENT DAY NOTICE FOR THE EMAIL TRANSFORMATION INITIATIVE The Government of Canada established Shared Services Canada on August 4, 2011 with the mandate to obtain better value from the management and operation of information technology (IT) infrastructure (i.e. email, data centres and telecommunications) across the Government of Canada. A key element of the Government of Canada IT infrastructure is electronic mail, or email, due to its importance as a communication medium in the Government of Canada. Shared Services Canada provides infrastructure services to 43 Government of Canada departments and agencies, which operate separate and distinct email systems that use different email technologies and are managed by separate support organizations. Consolidation of these email systems will enable Canada to reduce the cost and complexity of the current systems while increasing efficiency. On June 12, 2012, Canada will host a half-day information session in the National Capital Region to present the current state of the email systems that serve the 43 Government of Canada departments and agencies, and its "Email Transformation Initiative", which is Shared Services Canada's plan for consolidating these email systems. This "Industry Engagement Day" session is open to interested suppliers and associations from the IT industry. All media inquiries related to the Email Transformation Initiative should be directed to the Media Relations Office at (613) 947-6276. The purpose of the session is for Canada to engage industry in a discussion on the scope, procurement strategy and key requirements of the Email Transformation Initiative. Canada will present information on these topics and elicit feedback from industry to help shape the Email Transformation Initiative's strategy going forward. The details herein are intended to help prepare industry for upcoming engagement events regarding the Email Transformation Initiative.
