Overview

  Tailor capability to risks and opportunities - Resources must be focused on contracts where they can be used most effectively

We are often asked what commercial and contract management resources should be devoted to individual contracts. Ideally, government would be able to resource everything it needs, but insufficient overall capacity often means it cannot. Government thus needs to ensure that resources are allocated where they are needed most and where they can achieve the most impact. This is made harder by the lack of robust benchmarks for determining the appropriate level of commercial and contract management resources.
