The $110 million contract between the Telecommunication Services ofTrinidad and Tobago (TSTT), Fujitsu and the Government to transformthe Public Service by giving citizens access to more than 75 percent of public services from the comfort of their homes has beensigned.
"The contract has been signed and is now under what we callmobilisation," executive vice president of Fujitsu TransactionCaribbean Solution Ian Galt told the Express yesterday. Speaking last week, Public Administration Minister KennedySwaratsingh told the media the online services should be rolled outby January 2010. The services are expected to include onlineregistration of births, applications for Board of Inland Revenue(BIR) numbers and making tax payments. Galt explained yesterday that the contract is unlike most of thecontracts awarded for the construction going on in and around Portof Spain because both TSTT and Fujitsu are 100 per cent responsiblefor the success of the project.
"This is a joint and several contract which means it has no primeand subcontractor. We are both responsible for the successfuldelivery of this and if something should happen say for examplecost overrun then we would both be responsible."
