Access service to the ICT research documentation database - so-called Executive Programs and strategic professional support - so-called Technical Professionals, through the provision of access credentials.
The aim of the initiative is to make access to the information databases of the ICT sector available to CGCC through an internet portal by providing access credentials. The following substantial requirements must be guaranteed, which CGCC deems infungible:
• independence: use also to support the evaluation, adoption and purchase of hardware and software products, infrastructure management services, application development, database analysis, business intelligence development and statistical models. The supplier must not develop and publish “ad hoc” research or studies sponsored by suppliers of HW or SW products or ICT services;
• third party with respect to the suppliers of technologies and IT services of any kind (eg application design and development, infrastructure management, hardware and software sales). The supplier must not have participated in tenders either individually or in groupings with other companies that provide the type of services covered by the initiative or that provide and / or sell HW and / or SW solutions. The absence of a mixture of roles between analysts and consultancy roles must also be guaranteed;
• autonomy of research and analysis: it is essential that the research itself is produced entirely by analysts who are full-time "employees" of the supplier company, who, in order to avoid scenarios of potential conflict of interest, must not own shares companies operating in sectors subject to the analysis of the Research, as well as not having to cover operational roles in other companies (Board members, consultants, etc.). Analysts must be dedicated solely to research activities and to no sales, consultancy or support activities. These analysts must be bound by the ethical code of the company which formalizes and controls the principles of independence and objectivity;
• quality of research: the quality must be guaranteed through an information collection model based primarily on frequent and direct interaction with a wide and proven base of national and international public and private organizations and not only by mechanisms such as surveys, questionnaires or data primarily from technology and service providers;
• international significance: in order to ensure that the searches carried out are valid not only locally, as the supply of CGCC products and services takes place through international technological brands, a stable international presence is required both in other European and non-European countries with research structures and analysts.
It was decided to resort to the aforementioned procedure pursuant to Article 63, paragraph 2, lett. b), sub. 3 of Legislative Decree no. 50 of 18 April 2016.
