Considerable structural transformation is required by both the Queensland ICT industry and the Queensland Government to affect significant and sustainable change within the ICT contracting and consulting market. While the proposed industry alternative model developed by ITCRA does not address all the implications and consequences raised in the previous reports of this study, it does provide a more complete approach to industry and supplier rationalisation supported by clear precedents available in the Queensland public sector for similar industry self-regulation models and procurement arrangements. Without implementing either the government’s proposed or industry’s alternative models theQueensland Government could generate immediate once-off savings in the order of $30 million through improved benchmarking of resources against currently available data from within other public sector jurisdictions across Australia. However, with the precedent for industry segmentation and self-regulation in Queensland, such as the Building and Construction industry, the ICT industry’s alternative model supported by a limited supply pool offers a sustainable and co-operative approach to ICT contingent labour management with less industry impact than the QGCPO proposed model. Based on Longhaus’ analysis of the Queensland Government ICT contractor and consultant market Longhaus has calculated that within a year of implementation of the alternative model, the potential economic impact through recruitment industry redistribution of revenue in Queensland would approach $113 million. Further, based on a Limited Supplier Pool of 56 companies (representing the top 7% of current suppliers), 700 SME suppliers would be forced to leave the market or re-accredit themselves as qualified and credible suppliers to the Queensland Government through access as subcontractors to the Limited Supplier Pool and its associated KPIs and terms and conditions. This report is the third of three reports commissioned by the Information Technology and Contractors Association (ITCRA) with the support of the AIIA and ICT Industry Work Group to address the planned or unintential consequences of the Queensland Government’s proposed labour-hire model. Before reading this report, Longhaus would encourage interested stakeholders to review both Queensland Government ICT Contractor and Consultants Market Overview, and Downstream economic consequences of the Queensland Government’s proposed ICT contractor procurement model.
