Managing large, complex procurement projects is a challenging task that involves significant risks. To mitigate these risks, public sector organizations need to ensure that they have sufficient expertise on hand and adequate project oversight mechanisms in place. Oversight mechanisms for such projects often take the form of special review bodies or functions composed of internal and/or external specialists not involved in the day-to-day management of the projects under review. |
Audits of the oversight mechanisms and expertise required to successfully manage large procurement projects tend to focus on:
- The effectiveness of project review processes put in place to oversee large projects at specific points of the procurement process.
- The impact of these review processes on the delivery of large procurement projects.
- The extent of specialized procurement expertise available in government departments to either manage large procurement projects or take part in project review processes for these projects.
- The effectiveness of measures meant to ensure the availability of sufficient procurement expertise in public sector organizations.
