1 PLANNING CONTEXT
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The Department of Human Services (DHS) was created in October 1997 as part of a significant public sector restructuring in South Australia which aims to coordinate planning across the whole of State, build links across Government and foster partnerships with the South Australian community. DHS has responsibilities, through both policy and legislation, for health, housing and the support and protection of people as individuals and as members of communities. It is part of the Human Services Portfolio, which comprises a large number of Health Units and Service Providers delivering a range of services to the SA community encompassing hospitals, public health, family and youth services, the ageing and housing. Together they employ some 28,000 people, have a combined budget accounting for approximately 40% of the State’s annual expenditure, including some $800 million per annum on goods and services. Strategic Procurement was created in June 1998 to ensure that the Portfolio is well positioned in the manner in which it undertakes procurement of goods and services. This Plan explains how these challenges will be tackled and the planned achievements for the forthcoming year. Taking effect from 1 January 2000, the administrative reporting relationship of Strategic Procurement moved to the Asset Services Division. In terms of the procurement function, Strategic Procurement is responsible to the Accredited Purchasing Panel (APP).
1.2
PLANNING RELATIONSHIPS
This Business Plan has been developed in the context of the Human Services Portfolio Strategic Plan 1999-2002. It demonstrates how Strategic Procurement will contribute to the achievement of the three key Portfolio Outcomes, how the five Strategic Directions have led to the identification of its Key Result Areas and the outputs or “deliverables” it will produce in the financial year 2000 – 2001.

STRATEGIC PROCUREMENT REFORM
In June 1998 the Government launched its procurement policy reform framework, Purchasing Strategically. The reform program articulates a commitment to better buying through improved procurement practices to ensure value for money. The reforms were also developed to support devolved responsibility and accountability to agencies for the purchasing of goods and services.

Expected outcomes from the reforms were as follows: Ongoing savings of 3% per annum; Develop in-house competencies to support decision making; Higher levels of contracting authority; Integration of procurement with strategic planning; Proper and effective management of risk; Underpin procurement with best practice guides; and Introduction of electronic commerce.
A key initiative of the Government’s reform agenda was for the Department of Human Services to establish an Accredited Purchasing Panel. The APP is required on behalf of the State Supply Board to provide expert procurement advice, guidance and decision making support to the Chief Executive, set procurement goals and targets and oversee the reform processes. More specifically the APP is expected to: Steer reforms, including the implementation of policies, new business practices and systems; Ensure decision makers are skilled and accredited through training and assessment; Provide specialist support to oversee high risk purchases; Establish management and appropriate internal control systems for effective risk management; Implement government supply policy and establish performance measurement systems, including targeted cost reductions; Monitor agency purchasing practices; Collect, analyse and disseminate data to focus the development of more strategic approaches to procurement; and Satisfy the reporting requirements of the State Supply Board, including the development of forward procurement plans.
To support the APP, the Minister for Human Services approved on 8th June 1998 the establishment of a Strategic Procurement Unit. The role of the SPU was to: Provide strategic support and advice to the APP Provide leadership in the implementation of Whole-of-Government reforms Negotiate and let significant and complex contracts – sole and lead agency.
The Department’s initial contract delegation level to enter into contracts was $200,000. Following a recent submission of a Procurement Development Strategy to the State Supply Board the contract delegation level of DHS was increased to $500,000.
1.4
PROCUREMENT GUIDING PRINCIPLES
The Strategic Procurement Reform Strategy was underpinned by the following guiding principles: Value for money – to support value for money outcomes, the criteria to be applied to determine the best overall cost of goods and services should include an assessment of quality, service standards, timely delivery, benefits, risks as well as the actual costs over the life of the goods and services; Open and fair competition – all contract and purchase requirements will be sourced through open and competitive process, giving interested parties equal opportunity to do business with the department;

12/09/08
Strategic Procurement - Business Plan 2000-01
Page 522
Professional integrity and probity – due diligence and care will be exercised to ensure that the highest standards of professionalism, probity and ethics are reflected in the procurement practices and processes of the department; Client services – to optimise fit for purpose and delivery outcomes, clients needs will be identified and satisfied by agreed standards of service and performance; Management of risk – buyers will need to identify and assess risk on a case by case basis and develop risk management strategies as appropriate. Costs and options in managing risk should be commensurate with the significance of the purchase; Accountability – procurement activities will operate with clear accountabilities for individuals and groups involved; Simplicity – to assist with ease of purchasing, procedures and documentation will be characterised by uniformity and simplicity in design and operation; and Local industry sourcing where local suppliers can demonstrate competitiveness and capability – government and regional development policies will be considered in purchasing decisions, with emphasis on providing opportunities for local suppliers to participate competitively.
1.5
ACHIEVEMENTS IN 1999-2000
Submitted a Procurement Development Strategy to the State Supply Board seeking increased procurement/contract delegations for the Department for Human Services. Prepared and completed a Forward Procurement Plan for the Department for Human Services portfolio. The plan highlights the portfolio projected spend on goods and services over the next three years and is regarded as an important planning tool for both the Department and the private sector. Improved the procurement competencies of operatives across the portfolio through the running of workshops dealing with strategic purchasing, probity awareness, risk management, contract law and contract negotiations. The workshops were attended by over 400 employees. Completed over 300 major goods and services acquisition approvals valued at $68 million. Savings of some $3.3 million were achieved through competitive processes and contract negotiations. Completed a number of whole of government strategic contracts for Food Products and Vaccines valued at $18 million. Also completed portfolio acquisition plans for a number of strategic contracts, including pharmaceuticals, orthopaedic implants, sutures and wound care, continence products and renal consumables. The value of these tenders is estimated to be $41 million per annum. Introduced a facility to enable electronic lodgments of some tenders. Developed, promulgated and reviewed a series of contract delegations across the portfolio. Developed policies and guidelines for calling tenders, risk management in procurement, use of panel contracts, contract administration and trials for medical equipment. Developed a GST contract negotiation workshop for some 180 employees to increase knowledge and skills of business unit operatives dealing with contracts impacted by the GST.

2 THE YEAR AHEAD
2.1 PRIORITIES FOR 2000-01
Over the last year, Strategic Procurement has reached a stage where it is better able to articulate the priorities for the coming years. The currently identified priorities for the coming year in this regard are: Publish the Forward Procurement Plan (developed in late 1999-2000) across the portfolio to enable better informed and coordinated buying as well as provide forward advice to industry on likely DHS purchases over the next three years. Complete Strategic Contracts for Pharmaceuticals, Orthopaedic Implants, Renal Consumables, Sutures and Continence Products. (All these have had acquisition plans approved by the State Supply Board. The value of these tenders is approximately $41 million. The Pharmaceuticals are currently being evaluated and others will be advertised shortly). Undertake a review of procurement competency standards and skills across the Portfolio as well as conducting training workshops for Business Case Development, Contract Administration and Project Management. Undertake a review of Medical and Surgical supplies/products with a view to developing acquisitions plans for consideration by the State Supply Board. The value of the spend is approximately $80 million and predominantly recurrent funding. Currently there is only $10 million of Medical & Surgical supplies/products under contract. Undertake a review of acquisition profiles for goods and services expenditure across the portfolio with a view to establishing panel and common use contracts. This will save considerable tendering costs for both the portfolio and industry as well as deliver savings from bulking up. Establish a project team with a view to assessing the benefits and costs that may arise from any introduction of E-Procurement and promote wider use of electronic lodgment of tenders. Develop a Code of Conduct and policy dealing with conflicts of interest and ethical conduct for employees involved with the procurement of goods and services. Implement a Contract Administration framework across the portfolio to ensure that significant strategic contracts are managed effectively. Develop, review and improve tendering policies, procedures and guidelines that operate across the portfolio. Review the contracts delegation levels in operation across the portfolio, including appropriate conditions that may apply to new delegation levels.
