I was able to research about ICT master plan, entitled
PHILIPPINES: DENR okays ICT MASTER PLAN.
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR)
would soon be more responsive and at pace with the worldwide
developments with the approval of the Information and Communications
Technology (ICT) master plan of the department.
DENR Secretary Angelo Reyes approved the ICT master plan since it
is crucial to the department’s implementation of policies and programs
on environmental protection and management to attain sustainable
development of the country’s natural resources.
Reyes said that the computer experts from DENR’s various offices
nationwide drafted and discussed the ICT master plan during the three-
day workshop held recently in Lipa, Batangas.
The DENR, Reyes said, needed at least P7.06-billion investments
for a period of five years for the completion of the master plan to
achieve an integrated, secured and reliable enterprise-wide DENR
information system by 2010.
Reyes, however, said that the implementation of the plan would be
on staggered basis or in three phases due to the huge investments
needed and the urgency of computerization.
He stressed that the top information systems that are most urgent
and should be implemented starting September this are the information
systems on air and water quality management, geo-hazard maps,
topographical maps, land records and forest management.
Based on the master plan, Phase 1 will focus on building the DENR
ICT pillars by institutionalizing the ICT organization in the
department, setting up of quality processes and procedures and
building up an integrated DENR ICT infrastructure.
Phase 2, on the other hand, would focus on extending DENR to the
communities by providing efficient delivery of its services with the
establishment of an ENR one-stop, on-line service.
While Phase 3 is towards global competitiveness where the DENR
can provide the public with real-time ENR information that is
accessible anytime and anywhere.
Finally, in support of e-governance, the DENR will set up inter-
agency connectivity to promote transparency, accountability and
integrity.
