Tasmania to Create Centralized Portal for Government e-Services

April 12, 2022

The government of Tasmania is moving forward with plans to create a comprehensive digital portal for residents looking to access government services online. Service Tasmania has issued a formal request for tender, and will ask for demos from a shortlist of solution providers in June. The winner of the five-year contract will be announced in August, while development will officially begin in October of this year.

Tasmania to Create Centralized Portal for Government e-Services

If all goes well, the new myServiceTas portal will officially go live in September of 2023. Service Tasmania is planning to roll out the system in several phases, the first of which will allow residents to create an account and take advantage of select online services. Most notably, people would be able to renew their driver’s licenses, and complete their vehicle registrations.

After that, other agencies and services will gradually be integrated into the service over time. In that regard, phase one will essentially serve as a proof of concept, and demonstrate how a digital portal will make it easier for people to access government services. The system will provide residents with a single digital identifier, so people will be able to seamlessly navigate from one agency service to another once they are logged into the system.

myServiceTas will come with a paperless notification and reminder system, and will be integrated with payment software to make sure that people can pay fees online. The Australian state has allocated $4.3 million to the project, after a technology review found that Service Tasmania was not keeping pace with the rate of digital transformation in the rest of the world. As it stands, most of the agency’s interactions with the public are still taking place over the phone, or in-person at physical service counters.

Australia’s federal government is currently working to pass legislation that would support the use of digital IDs at the national level. The country already maintains a myGovID portal that allows people to access their accounts with a facial recognition scan.
