We might expect that the requirements relating to the skills of the resources selected for a contract would be clear and exhaustive, either in the contract or in the job description.
We often found that these requirements were not clear, either in the job descriptions or in the contracts. As well, there was no supporting evidence to explain why the Agency had selected resources who had less than ten years of experience.
In my opinion, the problem that can arise in such a case is that the best possible value for the services performed or the price paid is not achieved. In fact, we then saw situations where that was the case.
I would therefore have expected that the government would question whether these resources really worked and ask itself why it had paid such a high price.
