• Probity and Procurement Team

Allygroup’s experienced and independent probity advisors and auditors support the quality, efficiency and ethics of the probity function. We work with you to save time, cost and frustration, while minimising risk in your major projects.

Our expert probity and procurement advisory and audit team has decades of combined experience in both the government and private sectors. As experienced lawyers and accountants, we bring a unique understanding of probity risks and their effective management. We apply highly effective processes at all stages throughout the project lifecycle.

The increase in regulatory oversight and public demand for transparency in all aspects of public service decision making means that the need for leading practice probity has become extremely important. The risks of getting it wrong can be highly damaging.

The outcomes of ineffective probity processes include:

• mismanagement of potential conflicts of interest
• loss of highly confidential information
• reputational damage
• loss of confidence by potential tenderers
• organisational disruption and stress
• potential requirement to retender
• significant financial loss
• internal audit of processes
• considerable loss of value and time from your procurement project.

Allygroup can work with an external advisory team or alongside your own team to deliver:

• value for money for all stakeholders
• blended teams of accountants and lawyers
• long-term continuity across major projects
• clarity in business needs, requirements and tender documentation
• minimisation of delays in completing the tender process
• effective dialogue with potential tenderers to ensure they fully understand your business needs andtheir value to you is maximised
• effective debriefing of unsuccessful vendors and provision of information for future tenders
• ensuring evaluation processes are applied consistently
• safeguard of public interest.
