Revised target based on actual trend. 2.Continuous improvement, in particular introduction of accounts payable wizards* resulting in a 6% reduction in budget, has been responsible for the ongoing reduction in the price and the move towards more cost effective corporate support services to agencies. Performance Highlights In support of Governments procurement reform and in collaboration with Financial Systems, agency procurement profiles were developed using crystal reports. The profiles provide the base data on which agencies are able to develop their procurement management plans * Wizards have been developed to provide a graphical user interface(GUI) between the user and the mainframe input program where a GUI didnt previously exist. This makes input easier for the user. The graph shows the number and value of accounts processed over the last 4 years. The increase in the number of accounts processed reflects the first full year of processing for the Department of the Chief Minister, and the inclusion of accounts paid on behalf of DCIS. The graph shows that while the number of accounts has increased from the previous year, the value of payments has decreased by around 26%. 0 500 1000 1500 2000 2500 3000 2000/01 2001/02 2002/03 2003/04 A cc ou nt s Pa id ($ M ) 380 400 420 440 460 480 500 A cc ts P ro ce ss ed 0 00 's Accounts Paid Accounts Processed
