#1471 Contract management Level 7 change request pending

We propose the following Level 7 description:

• Authorisation authority for significant contracts
• Sets direction and provides resources and support to ensure that contracts continue to align with the strategic goals and priorities of the organisation
• Acts as the escalation point for major disputes with stakeholders
• Promotes strategic alignment between the needs of the organisation and the capability/expectations of suppliers

Rationale for this suggestion

There is no Level 7 skill description currently. We observe officers operating at Level 7 who have responsibility for, and are actively engaged in, contract management as described above.

This proposal was developed through a collaboration between the Digital Sourcing Network and the APS Digital Profession.

Proposed change applies to Contract management
