AUTHORIZING THE CONDUCT OF THE PROJECT SCOPING WORKSHOP FOR THE JUDICIARY'S INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY (ICT) PROJECTS.

Pursuant to the goal of assessing, reviewing, re-visiting and prioritizing the on-going ICT projects in the Judiciary and to determine the gaps and the critical succeeding steps required in the computerization of the courts, the Program Management Office (PMO), under the guidance of the Committee on Computerization, and in coordination with the Management Information Systems Office (MISO), will hold a one-day Project Scoping Workshop for the ICT projects of the Judiciary.

The general objective of the workshop is to determine the general direction which the Supreme Court and affiliate courts should pursue in ICT development. Specifically, the workshop aims to: (1) review the current initiatives and status of ICT-related projects; (2) identify possible gaps between and among the ICT-related projects; (3) determine areas for integration and complementation; and (4) determine and prioritize the critical succeeding steps in the Judiciary's computerization program.
