The Ministry of Social Development (MSD) is embarking on a transformational change that will deliver a new service model enabled by new capabilities, systems, and processes. MSD is the lead agency for managing and delivering New Zealand’s welfare system on behalf of the Government, and the primary provider of social policy and advice to Government.

MSD is excited to be releasing this Request for Proposal for the procurement of Transformation Partner Services and the provision of a Service Experience Platform.
The Transformation Partner Service Experience (SE) will work with us to transform the way we deliver services and implement a Service Experience Platform – a foundational technology platform that enables our future service model and enhances the end-to-end service experience for clients, partners, and staff.

The functional scope of the Service Experience Platform that you will be designing and delivering is extensive and market engagement has shown that the platform might consist of a small number of interoperable products. The Transformation Partner SE we are seeking is one who can bring leading products, innovative thinking, and insights drawn from experience, to implement the platform and utilise the full extent of its capabilities to redesign how we deliver services.

The programme to transform the way we deliver services represents a substantial investment for MSD and will run for many years.
MSD looks forward to working alongside a skilled, multi-disciplinary team to successively deliver positive change and value for our clients, partners, and staff over the duration of the programme.
