Trinidad & Tobago government award multimillion dollar contract to Fujitsu and TSTT

Trinidad and Tobago award a multi-million dollar government contract to Fujitsu and Telecommunications Services of Trinidad and Tobago (TSTT). The ITO contract aims to improve the online communications facility of government services.

The network will be built on leading edge technology supplied and supported by a consortium led by TSTT and Fujitsu.  Mervyn Eyre, CEO of Fujitsu in the Caribbean, commented “This is an IP-based network, similar to what supports the world wide web”.
The creation of “GOVNETT” is in keeping with the Government’s commitment to having 50% of its services accessible online by 2009, with additional services being continuously added thereafter.

Ms. Arlene McComie, permanent secretary in the Ministry of Public Administration added, “This is a very significant initiative which in addition to giving the public easier access to government services, it will also enable more direct communication with agencies and in so doing make these institutions more accountable”.
