Superannuation Payments for Contractors Working for the Australian Government: Follow-up Audit

  • the roles of Finance and the ATO in clarifying: the interaction of the PB and SG Act; the ongoing role of the PB Act; and mechanisms to monitor Australian Government organisations' compliance with the PB Act;
  • the extent to which Finance and the ATO have provided guidance and other support to assist Australian Government organisations manage and meet statutory superannuation obligations for eligible contractors; and
  • whether Australian Government organisations have managed and met statutory superannuation obligations for contractors in past and current contracts.

Managing Security Issues in Procurement and Contracting

The objective of this audit was to evaluate whether selected Australian Government agencies were effectively managing security risks arising from the use of contractors. To address this objective, the audit evaluated relevant policies and practices in the audited agencies against a series of minimum requirements in the management of security issues in procurement and contracting activity. These minimum requirements were developed from the guidance and standards contained in the PSM and also from the ANAO's previous protective security audits.

The audit focused on two broad types of contracting arrangements: contracting of security functions; and contracting of any service or business function that requires, or which has the potential to require, contractors to access sensitive or security classified information.

The following Australian Government agencies were involved in this audit:

  • Australian Customs Service (Customs);
  • Commonwealth Superannuation Administration (ComSuper);
  • Department of Finance and Administration (Finance); and
  • Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).

In addition, the Attorney-General's Department, which is responsible for the maintenance of the PSM and for providing advice on contemporary protective security policies and practices, was consulted during the audit.

Customs' Cargo Management Re-engineering Project

The objectives of the audit were to:

  • examine Customs' management of the CMR project; and
  • determine whether the ICS and CCF met:
    • project and operational objectives; and
    • user capability and functionality requirements.

Particular emphasis was given to the following areas:

  • the project management framework that supported the CMR project;
  • implementation arrangements for the ICS; and
  • ongoing operational arrangements.

After this audit commenced, Customs engaged Booz Allen Hamilton to undertake a separate review of the ICS. The purpose of that review was to provide Customs with a forward looking report on the lessons to be learned from the implementation of the ICS, its current status and the opportunities to enhance benefits for both Government and industry. The ANAO consulted closely with the Booz Allen Hamilton team and is supportive of the recommendations in their report, which was released in May 2006. The review made thirteen recommendations relating to the ongoing management and governance of the Cargo Management Re-engineering Program at both strategic and tactical levels.
