Greenland’s ICT Strategy 2011-2015




"Common public principles will form the basis for coherence,
common framework and simplification of processes and
administrative technology. Concrete projects must provide tight
coupling between business and supporting technology. Projects
must set standards where it makes sense. There must be focus on
services and added value to citizens and businesses. Experience
sharing and collaboration across government must ensure that the
wheel is not reinvented "!
Enabling infrastructure!




Greenland Connect is a submarine cable system across the Atlantic Ocean.
The cable provides commercial transmission services between London, UK and
Halifax, Nova Scotia via Iceland, Greenland and Newfoundland. !

ERP – a strategic programme




•  Plan for 2025
•  90% organization – 10% IT
•  Political project – power between government and municipalities
•  Burning platform: Old ERPs – not supported
•  Real burning platform:
    •  Lack of financial control, Lack of BI
    •  Status quo is not an option
•  App. 1500 users
•  Foundation for digitizing society (i.e. hunting licenses…)

EA’n’ERP




           •  ERP is Proof-of-Concept for EA
           •  ERP-project will do proof-of-concept on:
               •  Methods
               •  Tools
               •  Create some principles
               •  Define some standards
               •  Deliver list of some applications and some services
           •  ERP pays for EA (for the time being)
           •  The enterprise architect is also a PM in ERP-project
           •  ”ERP will break ice – but not icebergs”
The ERP programme




    •  Status: Beginning of scoping-process
        •  Health authorities, logistics, storage
        •  Municipalities – how many and how much?
        •  Finance, budget, financial “nomenclaturen”
        •  HR/Salery
        •  BI
        •  Standard systems or development?
3 principles - #1 and #2




From silo-thinking to coherency
§  ”You don’t need to do everything on your own”
§  ”Shared solutions whereever it makes sense”


Comply or Explain
§  ”You follow shared standards or provide a good reason for following your
    own path”
§  ”If you say A, you also have to say B”
3 principles - #3




Government is a house with many doors

§  Foundation   = Shared standards
§  Walls        = Shared use of data
§  Roof         = Rules, patterns, guidelines
§  Doors and    = Systems/Websites/portals
    windows
Many questions




•     Does ERP have a bulit-in-EA?
•     Is it relevant to think of EA while scoping an ERP?
•     What comes first: EA or ERP?
•     Is ERP the central core of mature EAs?
•     How does ERPs contribute to the EA?
•     How do EA contribute to ERP?
•     How does EA contribute to validity of data?
•     How to KISS? And does KISSes do the job?
