The Digital Transformation Agency (DTA), on behalf of the Australian Government, invites information on virtualisation platform options that could help agencies sustain or optimise existing environments, operate different platforms together, or transition to replacement or modernised environments. Options may apply across on-premises, public cloud and hybrid environments, including approaches that preserve choice, portability and future flexibility. Responses will help the DTA understand: • what the market can deliver • how available options could be implemented • the full cost of available options over time • security and sovereignty considerations • workforce impacts • purchasing options • realistic transition timeframes. The DTA seeks information on available virtualisation platform options, where they fit, how they integrate with existing environments, the dependencies they create or reduce, and their technical, commercial and operational implications over time. This RFI is an information-gathering exercise. The DTA may decide not to proceed further. The DTA may also invite respondents to clarify their responses, present their capabilities or provide further information. The DTA may use the information received to refine the requirement and decide whether and how to approach the market, including through a request for tender or request for proposal. Any later activity would be separate and at the DTA’s discretion. The DTA may also provide information received through this RFI to other agencies to support market analysis, planning and future activities.
