WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHIEF MINISTER
BY DEPUTY S.M. WICKENDEN OF ST. HELIER ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 8TH MARCH 2016
Question
Further to the answer tabled to question 9238 on 23rd February 2016 regarding the support provided to Jersey's digital industry, could the Chief Minister advise what specialisms have been identified so far that Jersey is lacking, if any, and outline what the Government has done to inform the local digital community and education services of any such lack of skills?
Answer
During the Design Authority procurement process emphasis, through evaluation methodology, was placed on supplier experience and track record in dealing with complex clients, ideally within the public sector. The selection process adhered to this evaluation methodology and feedback will be provided to all suppliers who bid for the contract.
The preferred supplier has been requested to engage with the local industry to identify, within 30 days, opportunities to use this contract to grow capacity and capability and to develop the skills of the local industry. This will include knowledge transfer in the context of complex design architecture, specifically including the enterprise architecture approach to systems, data and security.
