Health—Human resources management information system
183. Hon Tjorn Sibma to the parliamentary secretary representing the Minister for Health:
I refer again to the procurement and implementation of the $220 million human resources management information system (HRMIS) across WA Health.
(1) According to the contract, by when is the HRMIS supposed to be delivered?
(2) Has that date been met, or is that date likely to be met according to the departmental advice available to the minister?
(3) If the project is behind schedule, which factors are responsible for the delay?
(4) What is the revised delivery date and how will that date be met?
(5) What contingency arrangements have the health services adopted in the meantime to extend or improve their present HR systems and at what cost?
Hon Pierre Yang replied:
I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. The following has been provided by the Minister for Health.
(1)–(4) The government anticipated delivering HRMIS in December 2024. HRMIS is a significant project and the state government is continuing work to ensure that it is ready and suitable to be rolled out in due course.
(5) The WA health system undertakes regular maintenance and improvements to the current HR systems within ordinary operational budget parameters.
