ICT Spend Control Guidelines for Public institutions
To ensure coordinated planning for ICT needs/Projects across public institutions, all Budget Agencies at Central and Local Gov’t level have to fill and submit the ICT Needs planning Template with details of any ICT related activities or projects including development of ICT infrastructure, acquisition of ICT hardware equipment, software solutions and applications. This allows MINICT and RISA to review the submissions in view of the National ICT Development Agenda and for alignment with projects being implemented centrally, as well as advising institutions accordingly.
