Senator the Hon Mathias Cormann

The Government continues to deliver on its eGovernment and the Digital Economy election commitments with the establishment of a whole-of-government panel for the provision of cloud services to Australian Government agencies.

The panel covers core cloud products including:

• software as a service
• platform as a service
• infrastructure as a service
• cloud specialist services such as integration and optimisation. 

The panel enables Government to deliver services more efficiently, as well as provide services that are more responsive to business and community needs. 

The panel has an initial two year term, with options to extend for a further four years. 

A list of the first tranche of panellists below.
