- The Australian National Audit Office (ANAO) has a strong
interest in efficient and effective contract management.
Contracting is an integral part of doing business in the
public sector. The delivery of many, if not most, government
programs now involve some contracting with private sector
providers. As a result, developing and managing contracts is
a skill required by public sector entities1 in the
management of the majority, if not all, programs. However,
contract management is not an end in itself, and it is
important that all contracting decisions and actions focus
on the outcomes that entities are seeking to achieve and
cost-effective delivery approaches.
