Procurement
Cloud relies on consumption-based payment in other words on the principle of pay-as-you-go, while the government relies on consistent, predictable billing models. This could present some challenges to departments. It is to facilitate cloud acquisition that SSC through its Cloud Brokering Service and PSPC developed intake process to help and guide Departments navigate the Cloud Service Acquisition process.
