ICT Application Testing Services Panel - Notice of Tender
Tender Overview
About this advance notice
This is a Future Procurement Opportunity (FPO). A FPO is an alert to suppliers of a potential upcoming procurement activity, though does not represent a commitment by MPI to procure, however provides an indication to the market about the potential future activity. Suppliers can subscribe to this FPO, and MPI may use this list to assist with market research. When the RFP is released, the FPO will be linked to the RFP so that those suppliers who have subscribed to the FPO will get automatically notified of the RFP being released. The Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) is to source a panel of suppliers to supply ICT Application Testing Services on an as-needed basis where MPI has limited or no internal capability or capacity to support delivery of our IT projects. MPI is looking for suppliers who have the capability, experience and services to deliver ICT Testing services and have a good track record in providing these services. We are looking for ICT Testing services and not individual IT personnel or contractors. You have a strong and highly respected reputation for delivering quality ICT Application Testing services in the IT market and have highly skilled and experienced ICT Testing resources based in New Zealand or Wellington.
