President of the Treasury Board of Canada Anita Anand is setting out new guidelines for public service managers who contract out professional services, including consulting, with a focus on reducing spending on outsourcing.According to the Treasury Board, the guide builds upon existing federal policies, directives and guidelines around the procurement process and the management of contracts. It is to be reviewed and adjusted periodically.
“As of November 2022, nearly $10 billion dollars have been spent on professional and special services this year — a record level compared to previous years over the same period,” the report indicated. “The 2023-24 Main Estimates indicate that planned expenditures on professional and special services will remain steady at $19.5 billion in 2023-24.
Upon taking on the new role as Treasury Board president in late July, Anand tasked federal cabinet ministers with identifying excess spending, including on outsourcing and travel, and finding $15.4 billion in cuts by Oct. 2.
