The Victorian Ombusdman has released a scathing report this morning into the state's handling of major information and communication technology (ICT) projects.

The report, which examined the controversial myki transport smartcard and a proposed Victoria Police database, found that the projects routinely failed to meet expectations and time frames and all ran over budget.

"Too often there was muted acceptance that all ICT-enabled projects go wrong," the ombudsman found.

"Responsibilities were so diffused that it was difficult to identify who was accountable; or there was a tendency to blame those previously involved.

The Ombudsman found that the total estimated cost of delivering the 10 projects that he examined was $1.44 billion more than originally budgeted.

Premier Ted Baillieu said the Coalition had repeatedly warned the old government about the cost-blowouts but was ignored.

''They pressed on and dismissed those criticisms,'' he said.

''The bottom line is that Victorians are now $1.4 billion worse off than they would have been if the budgeted projects had proceeded to budget.''
