Listing Arrangement

The Office of the Government Chief Information Officer (OGCIO) all the time welcomes cloud service providers to offer their services through different channels to government bureaux/departments for acquisition.  In May 2012, succeeded by a Request for Information (RFI) exercise conducted in February 2012, OGCIO first introduced a listing arrangement for the Government Public Cloud Services (GPCS) for three years with a list of 40 GPCS providers and over 300 services to be offered.  This procurement arrangement provides ample opportunities to cloud service providers, including small and medium-sized enterprises, to participate in government procurement activities more conveniently.  Coupled with a standard set of terms and conditions initially agreed by individual GPCS Providers as the basis to establish subsequent service contracts, procuring bureaux/departments (B/Ds) can easily refer to the list to issue their requests for quotations and place orders according to the prevailing government procurement procedures.

To cope with the fast changing world of cloud computing, potential GPCS Providers are allowed to submit requests at any time for inclusion into the GPCS suppliers list now.

Currently, GPCS Providers can provide the government with their public cloud services on subscription basis covering four service categories, namely

(a)    Productivity Applications with “Office Tools and Suites”, “Document and Content Management” and “Collaboration, Meetings, Conferencing” as mandatory items;

(b)    Business Applications with “E-Mail” as a mandatory item;

(c)    Cloud IT Services with “Backup and Restore” as a mandatory item; and

(d)    Social Media Applications with “Photo Hosting/Sharing” and “Video Hosting/Sharing” as mandatory items.
