As for outsourcing, the ordinance cites Republic Act No. 8792 otherwise known as the Electronic Commerce Act which states in part that “it is the primary responsibility of the private sector in contributing investments, research and development, and services in ICT.”
Furthermore, Section 3 of the same Act states that the development of electronic commerce shall be led primarily by the private sectors in response to the market forces and that the government will create an environment that is conducive to private sector investment in information technologies.
As for funding, the ordinance stated that it shall be sourced out from the general fund under the budget of the City Mayor’s Office.
All government offices and institutions, business and commercial establishments, private offices, schools, sports and recreational centers, and transport operators’ facilities shall be urged to promote and encourage the adoption of these online systems.
One technical working group (TWG) for the DIBRR and one for the online payment transaction one-stop-shop government services shall be created to ensure the successful implementation of these online systems.
The ordinance also has provisions on confidentiality, terms and conditions, obligations of the city government and the service providers, qualifications of the service providers, and ownership of applications.
The ordinance has been transmitted to the City Mayor’s Office to be signed by the chief executive before it takes effect. -Jordan G. Habbiling
