Audit Governance Framework

Why are some sourcing relationships successful, while others face struggles or failures? Sourcing and Procurement excellence depends on an effective governance model which acts as a nucleus to overall Sourcing and Procurement program of IT Services, BPO or Shared Services.
Effective Governance model requires that Client Stakeholders and Service Providers;

• Continuously review and improve upon the Contract to benefit both the parties
• Establish clear roles and responsibilities for decision making, issue escalation, dispute management and service delivery.
• Allocate resources, expenditure and service consumption while prioritizing needs
• Continuously evaluate performance, cost, stakeholder satisfaction and delivery effectiveness
• Ensure an effort to introduce, implement and benefit from continuous improvement
• Ensure ongoing communication among all the stakeholders
• Inclusion of regular audit and assessment processes
