The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), the nation’s digital identity competition regulator, is issuing a limited tender to build the platform that will house its national digital ID system.
It has invited just 5 to 10 vendors to submit a request for quote on the platform, and refuses to share if any local suppliers are among them or how much the project will cost. The RFQ issued last week on the BuyICT platform sought to find an “experienced provider” to develop the digital ID system.
