Probity Advice
Ensure your procurement process and decision can withstand scrutiny by partnering with me for your probity advice needs. I provide an independent review of your procurement project as it progresses to ensure it is fair, ethical, impartial and transparent. I also consider whether the process and decision represent good value for your organisation.
Probity risk assessment, analysis and mitigation strategies are as important as probity management in complex, high value and sensitive procurements. In order to preserve the independence of the probity advisor role, my probity service will be independent from that of a procurement, legal and technical adviser as well as from that of a business analyst.
