It is the role of the Delivery Agency in the first instance to identify the appropriate GCA Framework for a project or program and to agree the approach with the associated GCA. The nominated GCA and corresponding GCA Frameworks for each type of project or program are outlined in Attachment A.
The appropriate GCA Framework will often be easily identifiable based on the project's investment type i.e. either capital, ICT or recurrent, and can normally be agreed between the Delivery Agency and associated GCA. However, in the case of mixed projects, a project or program may contain elements within the scope of multiple GCA Frameworks. The Delivery Agency of the project or program must consider the materiality of the elements of the project or program in identifying the appropriate GCA Framework.
If there is confusion or disagreement over which GCA Framework is appropriate for a project or program, the matter should be referred to the Policy Owner, who will allocate responsibility for the Gateway review to the appropriate GCA.
