The federal government’s recently renewed Microsoft volume sourcing arrangement will be worth $97 million over the next three years.
While the existing volume sourcing arrangement (VSA) had allowed agencies to procure Office 365 and Azure, both the Minister for Government Services Stuart Robert and Microsoft indicated the latest version contained more favourable terms and pricing.

Microsoft said the new VSA would make “Microsoft 365 available to all federal government agencies on a cost-effective basis”.
It was also expected that the agreement would lead to “less than two percent of the Commonwealth ... remain[ing] on legacy on-premise desktop licenses”.

According to the terms of the arrangement, the CCC enrolment includes the most commonly-used Microsoft products like Office and Windows.
Data#3's previous VSA contract with the government was initially worth $70 million between February 2018 and June 2019, though it did increase to $90 million during the life of the deal.

The Australian Taxation Office has struck up a contract with Data#3 for the provision of cloud infrastructure.

The one-year renewal has been listed as a $3.5 million investment from the tax office, which will see it continue to procure Microsoft Azure Cloud Services from the Brisbane-based IT provider.
The ATO told CRN the contract was for ongoing Azure services and was not related to a specific project, and that Data#3 was the sole Microsoft reseller available under the DTA’s mandatory Microsoft Volume Sourcing Arrangement.
