Role Overview

Guidance: In 2–3 sentences, describe the role's purpose, where it sits within the team, and why it matters to the

agency's objectives. Avoid copy-pasting from an unrelated JD — mismatched context is a common source of

candidate and contractor confusion.

responsible for end-to-end ICT procurement operations, ensuring compliance with government procurement

and compliant, while providing hands-on implementation and operational support across cloud, data and AI

services.

Key Responsibilities REQUIRED

state a frequency or measurable outcome (e.g., “weekly”, “within 5 business days”) — unstated frequency/volume is

• Procurement Execution: Lead or support the drafting, evaluation, and processing of ICT tenders, quotations,

and contract documents in alignment with statutory standards.

renewals, and resolve operational escalations.
