Technical requirements: The Malta Information Technology Agency (MITA) will be publishing a Call for Tender (CfT) for the procurement of development services for an end to end bespoke system (along with maintenance and support services) to be used by the Courts of Justice (Malta) in Quarter 4 of 2017.
This Prior Information Notice (PIN) is to announce that the Malta Information Technology Agency (MITA) will be publishing a Call for Tender (CfT) for the procurement of development services for an end to end bespoke system (along with maintenance and support services) to be used by the Courts of Justice (Malta) in Quarter 4 of 2017. The procurement is partly funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) with an estimated total value of EUR 950 000 excluding VAT.
The ICT Case Management needs of the Courts are currently served through a system that was conceived in the early 2000 and built as a bespoke application using architectural blueprints that were current for that period. The application was extended in an evolutionary manner over a number of years. The design and technology stack of the application are no longer congruent with the needs of a modern Justice ICT System that have evolved over the years.
The project will therefore encompass the building, from ground up, of a web based case management suite that is extensible to provide a range of electronic services with a focus on online submission and online interactions with the legal profession.
The Malta Information Technology Agency (MITA) is the central driver of Government's Information and Communications Technology (ICT) policy, programmes and initiatives in Malta. MITA's role is to deliver and implement the assigned programmes as set out in the Digital Malta National ICT Strategy 2014 — 2020, and as directed by the Minister for Competitiveness and Digital, Maritime and Services Economy from time to time. MITA manages the implementation of IT programmes in Government to enhance public service delivery and provides the infrastructure needed to execute ICT services to Government. MITA is also responsible to propagate further use of ICT in society and economy and to promote and deliver programmes to enhance ICT education and the use of ICT as a learning tool..
