This document describes the competencies and the associated knowledge, experience and training requirements that are essential for various levels of proficiency in the Procurement, Materiel Management and Real Property Community. Competencies are the behaviours that are associated with effective work performance. They can be a useful tool for professional development and career planning because they provide specific goals regardless of the particular organization or job context. The identification of common competencies allows the community to reflect workplace objectives and adapt as a group to changing priorities. With common goals and standards, both mobility and the capacity to identify tailored opportunities are enhanced.

This standard specifies behavioural indicator statements against a set of core competencies that are common to employees working in all areas of life-cycle asset management in the fields of procurement, materiel management and real property in the Government of Canada.

This standard also specifies behavioural indicator statements for procurement and materiel management functional competencies.

This standard covers the three core competency clusters and the functional competency clusters for the procurement and materiel management functions. Because of the diverse nature and variety of occupational groups that comprise the real property function, the behavioural indicator statements, knowledge and experience for this functional competency cluster are still being developed. (It is anticipated that the standard will be revised when the behavioural indicator statements, knowledge and experience for this functional competency cluster become available.)

Information on the knowledge and experience requirements that support the behavioural indicator statements for each of the competencies is provided in the non-mandatory Appendices A through C.

The progressive and cumulative degrees of complexity and responsibility outlined in the behavioural indicator statements and proficiency levels correspond with the level of acquired knowledge, skills and experience, and do not correspond with job classification levels.
