Other matters of SCM
Comparing the current year contract register 2011/12 with the Schedule of Procurement Plan - numerous
planned tenders have not been advertised or they were either advertised and cancelled
No construction contracts were awarded in the 2011/12 year.
40 SAPS official was identified who traded with the department without obtaining prior permission
Rotation of suppliers is still a challenge
SCM Policy is outdated and does not take into consideration compliance to the CIDB (Construction
Industry Development Board Act)

Challenges from last year:
• Logistics of the Department – supporting documents might not be available at station level due to documents being at for example courts / inspections.
• The difficulty of obtaining supporting documents / information (included but are not limited to: Case dockets, Occurrence book, SAPS 13 register, 184 register, approved plans, )
![Page 23: Department of Police – Portfolio Committee Auditor General’s perspective 13 March 2012](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062722/56649f315503460f94c4d177/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
2323
Challenges for the current year:
• Completeness of CAS – how does a station commander know that all cases that needs to be registered are registered (OB, IR reports, IB)
• Incomplete documenting of IR (no audit trail). No link between IR and CAS number.
• Drugs on OPAM – measurement / type / inconsistencies
• Firearm licenses – system does not support the target – date are typed in on the system
• FRS – no internal controls at some police stations
