Optional NZ government agreements and contracts with access to public cloud services

All-of-government agreements and Marketplace contracts simplify the contractual process and reduce the costs of public cloud services.

Benefits of all-of-government agreements and Marketplace contracts

All-of-government agreements and Marketplace contracts:

  • simplify the contractual process — taking less time to agree on terms for acquiring public cloud services
  • reduce the costs of public cloud services — leveraging the scale of New Zealand’s government organisations as a single customer.

Assess the risks before using optional all-of-government agreements and Marketplace contracts

For the information system you’re looking to use with these agreements or contracts, you’ll still need to do a risk assessment. It's needed to account for factors that are unique to your:

  • information system
  • business context.
