The Procuring Authority should recognise the broader value in performance data, and should collect performance data for a variety of reasons: as benchmarks for other projects, to inform policy development, and to feed into reporting requirements to the regulators or central government. To the extent performance data is available from other projects, that data can also be used to better assess the performance of the Project Company on a particular project, as it can benchmark against similar projects. Information management is detailed in Section 3.5 (Information management).
