A Tool for assessing the value contributed by public purchasing departments throughout various stages of competitive acquisition processes for consulting services
Presented herein is a tool for assessing the value contributed by public sector purchasing departments throughout various stages of competitive acquisition processes for consulting services. Both direct and indirect measures are included in this assessment tool. Although direct contributions are particularly important in an environment where the public scrutinizes the way in which public organizations spend money, indirect contributions made by the purchasing department can be even more important due to the significance of these services in terms of the impact that they have on the functioning of organizations and their ability to serve the public. This tool provides a practical means by which to improve the way that public purchasing departments help make these traditionally difficult purchase decisions, and in doing so, positively affect departmental and organizational performance.
