PROJECT LAZIO REGION
Invitation to Tender “Insieme x Vincere” by Lazio Region
PROJECT LAZIO REGION
Project Description
The companies, which are part of the Companies Network “Cloud4Defence”, aim at increasing the penetration capacity of of the businesses involved on the local, regional, national and international market.
They jointly will develope business activities, about management consulting and ICT (Information & Communication Technologies), for promoting the evolution of the technological architecture into the Public Administration (particular attention to the administrative structures of the Defense) towards a “Cloud Centric” model .
Potential of the target market
The low use of Cloud Computing’s technologies in the italian Public Administration, especially when compared to the leading countries such as the US and the UK, lead the way to a huge potential market.
As a research by the Polytechnic of Milan demonstrates, the development of cloud computing technologies into the Italian Public Administration, would allow savings estimated at about 5.6 billion euros of costs in five years, thanks only to a process of datacenters’s rationalization. Wider benefits would come from a complete new approach to the governance of IT. The Cloud’s role is critical to share and standardize services, improve technology, processes and organization in the Public Administration. In the Central Government indeed, there are about 4,000 datacenters for a total of 27,000 servers spread throughout the country, whom are employing 7,300 dedicated human resources.
Validation and dissemination of results
The innovation potential of the proposed project, applied to the Public Administration is extreme, not only for innovations of architectures but also for the ICT procurement processes. Savings would be obtained both in cost management, purchasing and maintenance but also on the organization of procurement processes, meeting the requirements of government about “spending review” procedures.
As for the technology transfer there’s two types:
1) Use of the technologies identified within the Ministry of Defense for the subordinate organizations that are in remote control with a “vertical dissemination “.
2) Use of information technology in other areas of the Public Administration such as the Lazio Region, Municipalities or other Ministries, creating a kind of “Cloud’s re-use” with an “horizontal dissemination”, which is also in line with current regulations (see. Government “Digital Administration’s Code).
Timing and organizational structure of the project: “Insieme x Vincere”
The project, splitted into five stages – parallel carried out – is made up of a series of activities.
Each company, as part of the Network, will be responsible for the management and organization of one or more specific contractual stages.
Each company will be organized with a project manager in charge of the specific assigned objectives that will coordinates with the project manager of the head company which will also be responsible for the entire project.
