Probity review
A probity review provides independent assurance. We assess whether a process complied with the relevant rules, the approved evaluation plan and the probity plan, and report to the delegate or audit and risk committee.
Timing
Reviews can be conducted at defined milestones, such as before the delegate's decision or contract execution, or at the close of a process. High-value and high-risk processes often use both.
Separation of roles
For high-risk or sensitive processes, the probity adviser and probity reviewer roles should be held by different people, so the reviewer is not assessing their own advice. Tell us which role you require, or whether you need both.
What you receive
A written probity review report setting out the scope, method, issues identified and how they were resolved, with an overall opinion on whether the process met its probity requirements.
