Australian Government, ICT Customisation and Bespoken Development Policy (Oct. 16, 2009) (full-text).
Overview[]
The August 2008 Review of the Australian Government’s Use of Information and Communication Technology recommended strengthened governance of customisation and bespoke development (Recommendation 5.2.2.b). This policy reflects the implementation of that recommendation.
The aim of strengthening governance of customised and bespoke development is to:
- Reduce the percentage of customised and bespoke solutions across government;
- Leverage current and future investment in government and commercial off-the-shelf solutions; and
- Increase opportunities to standardise government business processes and systems.
