Consultants and competitive tendering and contracting

Consultants

During 2004–05, no consultancy contracts were entered into by the department. This is a reflection of the reduced activity usual in an election year. This compares to the 2003–04 financial year when five consultancy contracts worth $75,121 were entered into.

Competitive tendering and contracting

Under the Requirements for Annual Reports, the department must report on any competitive tendering and contracting undertaken in 2004–05. The requirements define competitive tendering and contracting as the contracting out of the delivery of government activities, previously performed by a Commonwealth agency, to another organisation.

The department has no competitive tendering or contracting to report for 2004–05. However the Department of Parliamentary Services provided some services that were not the subject of competitive tendering processes. Those services, which are provided free of charge, include:

  • computing, telecommunications and audiovisual infrastructure, facilities and support
  • building support systems
  • library.
