Meeting the criteria

You must meet at least four of the seven criteria to be considered:

  • risk – the risk profile of the project is identified as high or extremely high
  • complexity – the project proposed is highly complex relative to the standard BAU procurement and may be made up of multiple procurements that impact one another
  • one off or unusual requirements – the project is an unusual business need for the agency or requiring an alternative procurement process (such as expressions of interest, requests for proposals or lower value Public Private Partnerships)
  • significance/public interest – the project is highly visible to the taxpayers, or is of high significance to the state, or politically sensitive for government
  • transformational (vs transactional) – the project will transform the agency’s business
  • timeframe – the project is extremely urgent or impacts other government initiatives
  • value – the project should have a minimum estimated contract value of $1-5 million. The total spend of your agency, agency size and internal expertise will also be considered in the context of this value
