Australian Federal Government's Outsourcing Deal with CSC
The Department of Immigration and Multicultural Affairs (DIMA) and the Australian Electoral commission (AEC) have extended their outsourcing contracts with Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC). The extended contracts will be worth $112 million. DIMA will extend mainframe and mid-range support for the Border Critical Infrastructure (BCI) and related project work for an additional two years. The original contracts with DIMA and the AEC were signed in 1998 for a three years period. In 2002, it was extended for another four years. CSC provides mainframe services to the AEC. The original contract was the part of the federal government's Cluster 3 outsourcing contracts.
Cluster 3 relates to the first group of federal government agencies undertaking IT infrastructure outsourcing, announced in July 1997. The agencies include the Department of Immigration and Multicultural Affairs, The Australian Securities Commission, The Australian Electoral Commission and The Australian Industrial Property Organization.
