MORE than 100,000 personal computers and printers across Singapore’s public service are expected to be replaced in 2023, as part of the Government’s spending on info-communications technology (ICT) this year. About S$400 million will be spent on such devices, which are replaced about every three years, the Government Technology Agency of Singapore (GovTech) said on Wednesday (May 24). The replacement of PCs and printers – which requires suppliers to meet certain environmental and energy standards, including packaging and materials reuse – is one of three key bulk tenders being called this year. Another is a S$600 million tender aimed at providing government agencies with subscription-based software for customer relationship management and case management, as well as platforms that minimise the coding needed to create software applications. The third is an S$850 million tender for services supporting cloud and on-site hosting for agencies.   https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/singapore/government-spend-s33-billion-infocomms-technology-2023 (ICE SINGAPORE)
