Publish clear metrics on the competitiveness, cost and timeliness of procurement.
What success looks like
The Government of Canada will make more informed contract decisions based on feedback obtained from comprehensive data and sampling of procurement activities and surveys.
Government's narrative on progress
Metrics on competitiveness, cost and timeliness are published in the annual Departmental Plans and Departmental Results Reports, as well as in Our Services, Standards and Results. Public Services and Procurement Canada established strong Key Performance Indicators for the 2018-19 Departmental Results Framework. A Data Analytics Strategy is being developed to optimize the effective access and use of data, methodologies, and analytics capacity/skills to support the development of the metrics. The launch of the electronic procurement solution will also enable the development of better data capture, which will allow for better metrics.
Note: this is the government's own description, not an independent assessment.
