In this IDC Update, IDC provides an analysis of the New Zealand governments' infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) tender, to allow government agencies to share common applications and storage resources provided by two currently selected partners, Datacom and Revera.

On Tuesday, October 26, 2011, the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) announced it has selected its final partners for its 10 + 5 year IaaS contract. Both Datacom and Revera have been selected as partners of choice for this major New Zealand government shared services contract. At the time of writing, IBM — the remaining third party in contention — has not been short-listed but was still in negotiation with DIA and was not yet excluded from the final panel of providers. The decision comes after a lengthy negotiation period with a number of service providers (SPs). The initial short-listed SPs included Gen-i, but did not include HP or Fujitsu despite them submitting proposals to DIA at the outset.
