Project Propel / IGF

Sarah Hillsdene made this Official Information request to New Zealand Trade and Enterprise

This request has an unknown status. We're waiting for Sarah Hillsdene to read recent responses and update the status.

From: Sarah Hillsdene

Dear New Zealand Trade and Enterprise,

It is my understanding that the organisation undertook a project to digitise the various IGF processes etc, known as Project Propel. It is widely known that this project is either in trouble or has failed.

Please supply the approved business case, and associated RFP evaluation & decision information in respect to the project (vendor and staff names should be redacted). Please supply all anonymous commentary from your recent employee engagement survey in relation to this project and its impact.

In a time of restraint, what was the return on investment (ROI) for this project? If this is including within the business case, then great.

Yours faithfully,

Sarah Hillsdene

Hi Sarah,

 

I am writing to update you on your OIA request to NZTE on Project Propel.

We are currently working through your request and consultation is
required. We are therefore extending the time to make a decision on your
request from 12 September 2024 to 27 September 2024.

 

We will endeavour to respond to you sooner, with 27 September 2024 being
the latest date for a decision. This extension is made under section
15A(1)(b), as the consultations necessary to make a decision on the
request are such that a proper response cannot reasonably be made within
the original time limit.

 

You have the right to seek an investigation and review by the Ombudsman of
this decision. Information about how to make a complaint is available at
[1]https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlo...
or you can freephone 0800 802 602.

 

Many thanks,

Maya.
