Budget Year Minus 1 - Delivery Plan - Expenditure

The Projects Delivery Plan is developed by the CMS in response to the Program Brief from DSG. The CMS Project Manager assesses the works and prepares in consultation with DSG a forward plan covering:

  • Projects schedule (Gantt chart and milestones in DEMS);
  • Projects expenditure plans (phasings in DEMS) (this page); and
  • Procurement Plan (Projects Facility Acquisition Strategy and Projects Tender Plan).

Phasing enables the Region to identify where any peaks and troughs occur in expenditure throughout the year. It also allows National Office to gain an overall picture of how much is to be expended each month, enabling them to release funds at the appropriate times.

Provision and upkeep of the works program for all planned works is the subject of CMS Compliance Indicator 3207.   Accurate reporting of Value of Work is the subject of CMS Performance Indicator PI 3253.

Outcome:
Development of expenditure planning information as monthly phasings in DEMS.

Activity Considerations

1) DSG and the CMC/CMS perform the following tasks:

 
2) Financial Allocation – added by National Office or Projects Manager when FACOPS Program is approved by DISC.  
3) Planned Commitment – by DSG Manager after delivery of Work Program. Planned Commitments based on the Project Planned Start Date
4) Forecast Value of Work – by CMS. Planned Expenditure is to reflect the anticipated value of work to be performed for each month of the project. 
Once the project is underway, any variations from the forecast value of work and the actual value of work are to be recorded in DEMS, by varying the value of work for the month in question.  The effect on forecast value of work for subsequent months is also be updated as required.  See Project Administration.
5) DSG Program Manager/Project Officer checks phasings have been completed and are consistent with the program schedule prior to commencement of the project.
