In January 2007 the UN Secretary General formally endorsed Mozambique as one of the Delivering As One pilot countries.
The Country Management Team is keen to position Mozambique appropriately as a model where the complexities of integration have been adequately researched and solutions implemented.
In support of this, the UN ICT Working Group (“ICT WG”) in Mozambique has set its sights on enabling the UN in Mozambique to achieve the goals set in the Delivering As One initiative recommended by the Operational Management Team (“OMT”) and endorsed by the Country Management Team (“CMT”).
The realizations of these goals are heavily dependent on how well information and communications systems are implemented, coordinated and managed.
The development, deployment, maintenance and support of these systems are within the terms of reference of ICT.
For a investment of US$404,930.44, which includes running costs for the duration of the Project, the ICT WG will establish the required foundation to achieve the ICT system-wide coherence and productivity; bring about a preliminary estimated cost saving of US$60,000 – 150,000 in operating costs of all UN Organizations and offices in Mozambique, as well as an operational framework sustainable into the future.
