Current tools used by the Procurement System Leader for monitoring performance of the procurement system include the Procurement Capability Index (PCI) and the Significant Service Contracts Framework (SSCF). Other tools may be used in future. These will also be covered by this rule.
The PCI is a self-assessment of organisational capability done annually. The Procurement System Leader may, at its discretion, exempt an agency from having to submit a PCI self-assessment.
Significant service contracts are the important contracts that your agency manages. These contracts include:
- services that are critically important to the delivery of an agency’s business objectives and
- pose a significant risk and/or significant impact in the event of supplier failure.
SSCF reporting is due when requested by the Procurement System Leader.
