About the project:
As Bhutan gears toward becoming a fully digitally transformed nation, it is critical to
look at the IT application systems from the Whole-of-Government (WOG) approach.
Although in the last decade and a half, the Government has initiated the development
of ICT systems to automate many government services with the aim to provide systematic services, improve efficiency and increase productivity, these systems triggered the need for process automation of public service delivery in Bhutan.

Further, several targeted reforms and initiatives after 2014 such as the e-Government
Master Plan, e-Government Interoperability Framework (e-GIF), e-Gov Management System, and sectoral EA by a few agencies particularly the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Economic Affairs have brought renewed coordination and collaboration
among service delivery agencies.

However, the constant advancement of technology and its trends and rising demands for
public services from the citizens on the one hand, and the existence of multiple fragmented systems still in the ecosystem on the other hand has not brought in the much-needed efficiency gain in the RGoB. Thus, the need for a WoG (Whole of Government) perspective was felt ever crucial.

The purpose of embracing the WoG approach is to develop integrated systems that cut across various sectors, sub-sectors, and activities. Such a holistic approach can help break existing sectoral barriers and silos by re-architecting common government services as a single system which could improve overall governance and efficiency and create values for the citizens.
Considering the above issues in our existing systems, the Department requests proposals from qualified individuals to assess and perform comprehensive Solution Architecture for Application Systems in the Royal Government of Bhutan (RGoB) that are developed on different platforms, in order to achieve an integrated common ecosystem so that the system functions in an ERP-like model – From planning to HR to payroll to procurement and expenditure on one hand and delivery of one-stop citizens services on the other hand.
