QWIK QITC Series – Getting certainty of terms, requirements and specifications for ICT projects

The QITC framework

In August 2017, the Queensland State Government introduced the new Queensland Information Technology Contracting (QITC) framework for procurement of information and communications technology (ICT) products and services by Queensland Government.

In this QWIK QITC Series, we are providing general information in respect of how the framework operates.

In the previous edition of QWIK QITC Series, we considered the key differences between the QITC framework and the previous GITC framework, including that suppliers no longer need to be accredited under QAssure under QITC, and certain high-level differences in terminology and risk profile. We also considered whether parties to existing GITC contracts should seek to contract under their existing terms, or the new QITC contracts.
