Project Manager to oversee the implementation of replacement IT system

Tender description

A Project Manager resource is required to manage the delivery of an IT system replacement, to be used by the Road Transport Operator Licensing (RTOL) unit at the Department of Transport, Tourism, and Sport (DTTAS). The Project Manager will be required to assist with the IT vendor selection process; work closely with the successful vendor and RTOL/DTTAS stakeholders; and drive the development and roll-out of the new IT sytem. To this end, the Project Manager must be able to assess proposed systems and advise RTOL/DTTAS accordingly. In turn, the Project Manager will be expected to guide and direct the vendor with regard to the RTOL unit's legislative, systems, and operations requirements. Equally, the Project Manager will be tasked with translating business process requirements into implementable processes, procedures, and KPI management tools. It is anticipated that the Project Manager will be primarily based at the RTOL unit site (Loughrea, Co. Galway), but that attendance at the DTTAS Shannon site may also be required as necessary.
