"The object of the audit was to assess whether Defence is effectively managing the EO Services Contract. The audit focused mainly on Defence's contract management framework, including the arrangements to monitor the contractor's performance in delivering services under the contract. The audit also examined the processes used by Defence to develop the current version of the contract and the extent to which the revised contract as negotiated in 2006, provides an assurance of better value for money when compared to the original contract signed in 2001." -- p. 14
