Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Establish objectives of data collection
- 1.1 Requirements of data collection system in terms of possibilities and constraints are determined through consultation with clients and key stakeholders.
- 1.2 Options to satisfy requirements are assessed in consultation with key people taking into consideration cost, time for development and operation, ease of use, and organisation's objectives and priorities in fraud/corruption detection activities.
- 1.3 Most suitable option is determined and specifications are developed in consultation with key staff.
2. Ensure that data collection matches requirements
- 2.1 Techniques of data collection and analysis are agreed/approved in accordance with organisational policy and procedures.
- 2.2 Interface specifications are designed to reflect awareness of user characteristics and needs, and to facilitate the use of the information management systems.
- 2.3 Systems are structured to be open to modification to reflect changing organisational focus, user needs and targeted initiatives.
3. Implement data collection and matching systems
- 3.1 Strategies are developed and maintained to improve access to and use of networks for communication and information access and retrieval.
- 3.2 Mechanisms for more efficient delivery of information from remote and regional sources are identified and implemented as required.
- 3.3 Increasing efficiency of network access and use is balanced against security, legal and privacy issues.
- 3.4 Systems developed are matched against standards for compliance.
- 3.5 Input into policy and procedural changes regarding accessibility of information is provided based on a knowledge of organisation's core business, trends in fraud/corruption activities, and the nature and limitations of the information systems in use.
