Proposed new IT system
John Jacobson made this Official Information request to Wellington City Council
The request was partially successful.
From: John Jacobson
Dear Wellington City Council,
This is a request under section 10 of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987.
Please provide:
1. the business case and analysis to support the proposal by Wellington City Council to 'replace over 120 applications with a core Council Application platform'. This project was listed in the programme for the 2014 ALGIM conference: https://www.eiseverywhere.com/ehome/algi...
2. a detailed list of the 'over 120 applications' which are to be replaced with a core council application platform, and the estimated cost of decommissioning these applications including migration of data and write-off of the capital book value of the systems to be replaced.
3. any case studies held by the Council of other councils where multiple applications have been replaced by a single core application platform.
4. the estimated costs of the replacement core system and the date when this project is scheduled to be completed.
If anything about this request is unclear, or you consider the request may be refused under section 17(f) of the Act, please contact me via the address from which this request was sent.
If the council considers that one of the reasons in section 7(2) of the Act may provide a reason for refusing any part of this request, I urge it to consider the strong public interest in enabling more effective participation by the public in the actions and decisions of local authorities and in the accountability of local authority members and officials, as described in sections 4(a)(i) and (ii) of the Act.
Yours faithfully,
John Jacobson

Hello Mr Jacobson,
Thank you for your request for information relating to the Council's IT system.
I note on the FYI.org.nz website that it states the Council must provide you with a response by 8 January 2015, 20 working days from the date the request was submitted.
This email is just to advise you that although the Council will endeavour to provide you with its decision on your request as soon as is practicable, the deadline for the decision is actually 30 January 2015.
Under the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA), the definition of working day does not include a day in the period from 25 December to 15 January of the following year. As such, the 20 working day period is suspended between these dates.
I will be in contact with you as soon as the Council is in a position to provide you with the decision on whether your request will be granted, and in what form.
Kind regards
Chris
