The Geneva Department of Public Education, Training and Youth (DIP) is taking a further step in its desire to free itself from American digital giants within educational establishments. A request for information has been published on Simap, the public procurement platform in Switzerland, with the aim of replacing the educational suite of Google Workspace software used since 2014, it has been learned Time. This involves surveying the market and identifying available solutions with a view to a possible call for tenders.
Contacted, the DIP confirms the information. It was Manuel Grandjean, director of the Schools-Media Service (SEM), who was responsible for detailing the approach. “We want to examine whether there is a collaborative suite that meets the needs of secondary I establishments [élèves de 12 à 15 ans, ndlr]», he indicates to Temps.
