Typically these digital technology projects or services will have known outcomes, objectives; deliverables; milestones and identified methodologies (e.g. agile and PRINCE2). Digital technology projects can be delivered in grouped or isolated phases including an end to end transformation of digital services from strategy/business need development right through to retire/exit or for ad-hoc requirements as part of a wider programme or project. These digital technology projects often need expertise to assist organisations to help develop and deliver specific pieces of work on a service, programme or project. Whilst not all digital projects use agile there is a growing use of the individual phases; Discovery, Alpha, Beta and Live. Suppliers may be be asked to undertake the end to end project or the independent phases. Due to the wide and diverse nature of Digital Technology Projects and Services, it is not possible to list all the types envisaged - but some examples are; Integration Services, Managed ICT Services, ICT Support, Digital transformation projects, digital/on-line services, software and infrastructure engineering, user research, content design, service design, user experience, testing and auditing, training, service delivery/support, enablement services, server and infrastructure maintenance services, data analytics/services and Data science projects.
