Probity is defined as ‘integrity, uprightness, honesty’ – Our probity services are concerned with the
examination and evaluation of whether a process is being complied with over the life of a project. It
can also consider whether established criteria, standards and principles have been complied with.
While typically probity activities are focused on the procurement of goods or services, they can be
applied to any process which has a defined approach and expected outcome; such as recruitment of
personnel or the disposal of an asset. Supporting our probity focus, we have extensive experience in
the public sector procurement environment, providing a range of specialised consultancy services in
procurement and contract management.
Our consulting solutions are built on the firm’s experience in audit and assurance, risk management
and probity and procurement. We have a strong history of offering innovative solutions to the
international development sector with projects ranging from the development and implementation
of financial management and procurement systems, participation in design teams, peer reviews,
independent review teams, to providing probity advice to politically sensitive procurement activities.
