CADSI WEBINAR: Public Service and Procurement Canada - Pricing Regime Renewal

Event Description

PSPC has retained KPMG to provide guidance on is Pricing Regime Renewal. KPMG is developing guidance for PSPC on alternative pricing approaches, and would like to secure industry feedback on its recommendations via workshops and one on one discussions.

PSPC has acknowledged that current guidance with respect to pricing, as found in the Supply Manual, presents several challenges:

  1. Limited to negotiated price, and lacks guidance on pricing alternatives to support collaborative arrangements, targeted outcomes, or contracting for value.
  2. Guidance is static and prescriptive, which disincentivizes experimentation.
  3. Opportunities to try innovative new approaches and share best practices are limited.
  4. No authority or official process exists to sanction the use of alternatives or emerging practices.
  5. Too many applications of costing and profit policy are open to interpretation.

To support these activities CADSI has agreed to work with PSPC and KPMG to host a kick-off webinar for its membership to hear about the mandate PSPC has to improve the existing Pricing Regime and how KPMG will be engaging industry in the development of practical input and recommendations. KPMG will be engaging industry in early 2018. At, or following, the webinar CADSI members can signal their interest in engaging in the Pricing Regime Renewal process. 

Speakers:

  • Brian Gifford, CPA, CA, CIA, Senior Manager, Price Support Directorate , Public Services and Procurement Canada
  • Brian Bost, FCPA, FCA, CIA, CGAP, CRMA, BComm, Partner-in-charge, Risk Consulting, KPMG LLP

You are invited to participate in the kick-off webinar from 11:30 to 12:30 on December 18th, 2017.
