There seemed to be an ability of the individuals in certain areas or maybe all areas of the IT group to deal directly with PSPC on contracts. That's not a best practice.
I have established and elevated the role of the procurement directorate to play its proper function in accordance with policy, which is to receive requirements from the various business owners across the department and develop procurement plans, to the extent that procurement can take place within the CBSA's authority to take the lead on that, or interface with PSPC. That wasn't happening. That is now the requirement. We have a bolstered and more senior level responsible for procurement in the department.
