4 Introduction Context The goods and services provided by our providers are often critical to the public and the country s economic and social well-being. On average 37 cents in every dollar spent by a government agency is with a provider. Effective procurement helps government agencies deliver better public services while realising value for money. The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) influences and shapes public service provision through the Procurement Functional Leadership (PFL) programme. MBIE s focus is on raising standards, improving capability and reducing duplication in government procurement through a collaborative, centre-led approach. About New Zealand Government Procurement (NZGP) NZGP delivers on MBIE s PFL objectives to shape procurement excellence and deliver value for New Zealand. The following objectives drive our programme of work. Lift performance, add value and maximise results. Create an environment where New Zealand businesses can succeed. Unlock cost savings and value for money. Assisting the Canterbury rebuild. We lead a range of initiatives aimed at building procurement capability and fostering collaboration across the New Zealand Public Sector. About All-of-Government contracts We have established All-of-Government (AoG) contracts to take the hassle out of procuring common goods and services, so government agencies can focus on achieving strategically important business outcomes. AoG contracts harness the collective purchasing power of government by establishing single supply agreements for the supply of selected common goods and services. AoG contracts account for about 2% of government spend with third party providers and are designed to improve engagement with government providers. They also go some way to standardise procurement engagement with government, reduce transaction costs and improve overall service quality for government and providers alike. They deliver high quality products and services to government and value for money for the New Zealand taxpayer. Collaborative contracts Collaborative contracts allow eligible agencies to purchase goods and services collectively. Each collaborative contract has a lead agency responsible for the procurement process and the resulting collaborative contract. In addition to the All-of-Government contracts lead by NZGP, the following two types of collaborative contracts are also available to eligible agencies. Open Syndicated (OS) contracts Common capability (CC) contract The Collaborative Contracts Register lists all established collaborative contracts. For more information, procurement@mbie.govt. For a full list of existing AoG contracts and details of current collaborative contracts that complement the External Recruitment Services AoG contract, visit the Other contracts section of this guide.

NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT 12 External Recruitment Services Buyer s Guide

13 Transitioning to this contract It s important that eligible agencies consider any existing contracts when assessing the suitability of the External Recruitment Services contract for their business needs. Below are some common scenarios for agencies transitioning onto this contract and supporting information to assist in the transition. Participating agencies are required to exclusively use panel providers for their primary services. This applies to new assignments and any renewals or extensions of previous contractor placements, where an external recruitment service is required. You can contact the Recruitment CoE for more information or support around transitioning. Scenario one Government agency has an existing contractual arrangement (i.e. outside of the AoG External Recruitment Services contract) for services with a provider on the AoG External Recruitment Services contract panel. The CoE will notify providers once you ve signed up to the contract. You will need to work with your current provider(s) to ensure they move your services onto the new terms and conditions as quickly as possible. Scenario two For any permanent work that is already underway, the work will run to completion under your existing arrangement and any new work will be under the AoG External Recruitment Services contract. For contractors, the expectation is that when you alter the paperwork (e.g. review pay, extend, or change the description) the contractor should move onto the AoG External Recruitment Services contract. We also expect that this would happen fairly quickly as agreed between you and your provider. For temps the expectation is that the temps are moved on a date agreed between you and the provider. This should be no longer than a month after joining the AoG External Recruitment Services contract. Government agency has an existing contractual arrangement (i.e. outside of the AoG External Recruitment Services contract) for services with a provider NOT on the AoG External Recruitment Services contract panel. For any services that you have with non-aog providers, you should select the provider(s) you want to work with from the panel and transition as soon as practical. See the How do I choose a provider? section of this guide for support on selecting a new provider. For any permanent work that is already underway, the work will run to completion under your existing arrangement and any new work should then be with AoG panel providers. Pre-existing contractor assignments within scope of the AoG solution continue until they expire, come up for renewal or are terminated. At that time the work should then move to an AoG provider. Pre-existing temporary assignments within scope of the AoG solution continue until they expire, come up for renewal or are terminated. At that time the work should then move to an AoG provider. Alternative scenarios We understand that you might have a mix of these two scenarios or a different situation all together. The CoE can help you work through this and assist in designing a transition plan to meet your needs. NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT 13 External Recruitment Services Buyer s Guide

14 How do I join? Note: if you ve already joined any other AoG contract, start at the third step below Log into insource. Check eligibility Agencies within the State Sector, as well as Local Authorities, and State funded Schools (together, the New Zealand Public Sector) are eligible to buy from AoG contracts, Common Capability contracts and Open Syndicated contracts (Collaborative Contracts). For more information or to find out if your agency is eligible to join AoG contracts, please visit the NZGP website or coe@mbie.govt.nz. Sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) Agencies who have not yet signed up to an AoG contract must sign and return a NDA before they can access confidential contract information relating to AoG contracts. coe@mbie.govt.nz to request a NDA or to confirm your agency has already signed one. Log into insource Once NZGP has the signed NDA, the agency will be issued with a log-in to insource; the secure online library that hosts all of the confidential information, tools and guidance (including pricing and other commercial details) relating to the contract. If you re having trouble accessing insource, insource@mbie.govt.nz Assess your business requirements against the contract offering Agencies need to consider their existing contracts when assessing the suitability of the External Recruitment Services contract for their business needs. See the Transitioning to this contract for more information. Using the information, tools and guidance available in insource, agencies can then identify how the contract can best meet their business needs. Read the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) Each AoG contract has a specific MoU, which sets out the relationship between the CoE and participating agencies. It highlights the responsibilities and obligations of each party and the key points in the contract as they relate to participating agencies. Sign a Letter of Accession (LoA) By signing a LoA, agencies agree to the terms and conditions of the MoU and the related AoG contract. This allows agencies to access the contract. Agencies need to sign a specific LoA for each individual AoG contract they wish to join. While there is no limit to the number of contracts an agency can join, a new LoA will need to be signed upon renewal of any existing and new AoG contracts. The Recruitment CoE is here to help agencies work through what the contract offers and how to maximise the benefits available. Contact the CoE for more information or support around joining the contract. NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT 14 External Recruitment Services Buyer s Guide

15 How do I choose a provider? Determine requirements Start by determining your service requirements and what capability and capacity you already have within your agency to help you establish what you need to source from the panel. Is your requirement for: a single role? a specific project? a long-term arrangement to deliver over a period of time? Establish subpanel (optional) Participating agencies may wish to establish their own subpanel of providers. A subpanel is a selection of providers (from the 40 panel providers) who have been selected to service the varied needs of your agency. A subpanel could be useful if your agency has multiple business units, each with different challenges and requirements. This allows the providers to get to know your business better, which can lead to better outcomes. The optimum size of your agency s subpanel depends on your requirements, and may vary over time. The Recruitment CoE can provide guidance on running an efficient selection process for a subpanel, as well as help determine whether there is a need to put one in place. Once the subpanel has been established, you can choose to engage with a single provider from your subpanel directly, or you can use the Provider Fee and Pricing Calculator on insource to compare provider fees as well as the quality and value-for-money rankings of each provider. Secondary Selection Process When you require services from the panel, a participating agency can choose to engage with a single provider from the panel directly or undertake a more robust secondary selection process. You can use the Provider Fee and Pricing Calculator on insource to compare provider fees as well as the quality and value for money rankings of each provider. Further guidance on undertaking your selection process is on insource. Complete a Recruitment Services Order (RSO) Once you have selected a provider, a RSO or alternative, must be completed and agreed by your agency. As part of this process you may wish to provide a briefing to the panel provider (in person, or over the phone). This ensures they have a thorough understanding of your requirements, and ensures you get the best possible outcome. The provider may not begin performing the services until your agency has approved the RSO. All other documentation (e.g. job descriptions) that are generated as part of the delivery of services, can be referenced in, or attached to, the RSO as appendices for audit, invoicing, and/or reporting purposes. Full breakdown and guidance for this process is available on insource. NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT 15 External Recruitment Services Buyer s Guide

16 Alternative methods of engagement The RSO can be substituted with alternate methods if the alternative method follows a similar engagement process and contains the same key elements as in the RSO e.g. e-recruitment tools. You can find the RSO templates and guidance about what information your alternative method must include, on insource. Provider places candidate The provider completes the services as outlined in the RSO. Communicate the decision After the RSO has been agreed and approved, you should ensure that you let the unsuccessful provider(s) know that the role has been filled. Where appropriate you should also offer the courtesy of a debrief. This obviously comes down to the size and nature of the role, it would be more important for a permanent role where you have interviewed candidates for example. A debrief does not need to be an overly onerous task; it could be a simple phone call to give the provider an overview of the strengths and weaknesses of the candidate, and is to give providers an opportunity to improve future candidate submissions. Further guidance on undertaking your selection process is on insource. NEW ZEALAND GOVERNMENT PROCUREMENT 16 External Recruitment Services Buyer s Guide

17 How do I manage the provider relationship? Participating agencies will continue to be responsible for managing their provider relationships from both a strategic and operational perspective. Reporting Performance reporting The CoE monitors the overall performance of providers against the contracted Service Level Agreements, with reporting available to agencies, usually on a quarterly basis. Provider reporting The CoE receives detailed reports from all panel providers. Before asking a provider to supply extra reporting to your agency, please discuss with the CoE what we can provide to you. Invoicing and payment Invoicing and payment terms have been agreed the default position is that charges will be invoiced monthly in arrears on a single itemised invoice. Invoices are to be paid by the 20 th of the month following the month in which the invoice was received. However, the contract allows flexibility for agencies and providers to agree the form, content, mode of delivery and frequency of invoices as part of each RSO. AoG contract rates are negotiated on the understanding that government agencies pay in full, on time. Late payment can cause significant cash-flow issues for companies on the panel, particularly where temps and contractors are involved due to the invoice including their pay. The provider has to pay the candidate out of pocket until the invoice is paid so on-time payment is very important. Resolve disputes The provider and agency must do their best to resolve disputes. Agencies are encouraged to contact the CoE to discuss any issues. The following table shows the formal escalation process for disputes in an AoG agreement. Timeframe The day the dispute arises If not resolved within 10 business days If not resolved within another 10 business days If not resolved within a further 10 business days Escalation Both parties attempt to resolve the dispute. Agency and provider escalate to their respective senior representative. Agency escalates to Recruitment CoE and escalation contact remains the senior representative. Agency escalates to MBIE s manager for collaborative procurement and provider escalates to the General Manager/Director.
