Knowledge Enterprises Branch

Manitoba is reforming its Information & Communications Technology (ICT) procurement policies and practices. This process is driven by the government's desire to ensure that the ICT procurement process;

• is transparent and accessible to all businesses, large and small.
• is more consistent and coordinated.
• is built upon principles of risk management rather than risk avoidance, facilitating better equity among businesses of all size.
• is less prescriptive in its approach, enabling more innovative and cost-effective solutions to be brought forward by vendors.

Doing business with government should be easy. Improvements such as these will go a long way to achieving that goal.
