About e-GP
01/12/2010
Value of e-GP
An e-GP System is an information gateway between
vendors and government buyers.
Primary result is transparency by making information available.
An open competitive procurement environment that
generates best value for government
– critical mass = more value for both government and vendors.
Content has more value than the features and functions of
the system.
Opportunity for Information Management, Reporting, and
Monitoring
Centralize Management with de-centralized responsibility.
Opportunity to implement and manage standard processes.

E-GP Considerations
01/12/2010
Primary Decision for Model
Funding
The implementation of a full e-GP system can require
significant upfront investment for the applications and
infrastructure to support the system operation.
A sound business plan could provide the necessary
funding to support the e-GP operation.
Managing Risk
Many government organizations do not necessarily have
the required resources or skill sets to manage all aspects
of the system development and operation.
This creates a significant risk that may be associated with
delays or system failures during the delivery and
operation.
A 3rd party partner can help alleviate some of the risk with
regards to resources and future technology advances.
