An agency will be accredited for a particular procurement phase if it is considered to have all the capabilities necessary to carry out that phase without external support at any level of procurement risk. Remaining agencies will not be accredited on the basis they do not have the capabilities required to manage that phase without external support, except for the planning phase for low risk projects valued at less than $50 million (for which accreditation is not required). The list of accredited agencies, as at December 2012, is at Attachment 2. A non accredited agency can obtain accreditation for a phase of a specific “partial” project or program assessed at low or medium risk. To do so, it must demonstrate that it has the competencies necessary to successfully manage that phase of the project.
