词条 | Performance-based contracting |
释义 |
Performance based contracting (PBC), also known as performance-based logistics (PBL) or performance-based acquisition, is a product support strategy used to achieve measurable supplier performance. A PBC approach focuses on developing strategic performance metrics and directly relating contracting payment to performance against these metrics. Common metrics include availability, reliability, maintainability, supportability and total cost of ownership. The primary means of accomplishing this are through incentivized, long-term contracts with specific and measurable levels of operational performance defined by the customer and agreed on by contracting parties. The incentivized performance measures aim to motivate the supplier to implement enhanced practices that offer improved performance and cost effective. This stands in contrast to the conventional transaction-based, or waterfall approach, where payment is related to completion of milestones and project deliverables. Performance-Based approaches are most widely used the defense industry, but can be applied across any spend category. OverviewPBC is about buying performance, not transactional goods and services, through an integrated acquisition and logistics process delivering improved capability to a range of products and services. PBC is a support strategy that places primary emphasis on optimising system support to meet the needs of the user. PBCs delineate outcome performance goals, ensure that responsibilities are assigned, provide incentives for attaining these goals, and facilitate the overall life-cycle management of system reliability, supportability, and total ownership costs. A PBC in practice involves a contracting agency (who are contracting the work to an external provider) and a contractor (who are responsible for completing the work set out in the contract). Several other parties are often involved, including subcontractors, a legal team and consultants. These parties work for both contracting agency and contractor completing various elements of work associated with contract development, contracted work completion or performance management / measurement. United States federal law defines performance-based acquisition [1] and treats it as "the preferred method for acquiring services".[2] ImplementationA typical process for implementing a PBC is as follows:
NamingPBC is the name used in Australia, New Zealand and Canada to describe the practice of attaching contract payment to a set of performance metrics. It is commonly known as performance-based logistics in the US and Contracting for Availability or Contractor Logistics Support in the UK. Although it was developed in the US for defence applications, and is most actively applied there, PBC strategies are growing in popularity around the world and in industry sectors other than defence. In particular, PBC frameworks are becoming popular in shipping, transport, health services and the energy sector. Alternative terms include: {{citation needed|date=September 2012}}
ApplicationsDefencePBC is widely applied in the Australian defence sector, primarily by the major acquisition and support organisation, the Defence Material Organisation (DMO). It is particularly useful in the defence environment because of the inherent complexity and large scale of the projects.{{citation needed|date=September 2012}} Recently, Australian Defence has initiated an escalation of the use of PBCs with the strategic aims of improving capability outcomes and reducing total cost of ownership. In Australia and the US, PBC frameworks are most commonly applied in Defence situations. PBC frameworks are currently being used in numerous Defence related projects, including:{{citation needed|date=September 2012}}
IndustryAlthough it is applied primarily in the defence environment, PBC is becoming more popular{{citation needed|date=September 2012}} in a broader range of private and public sector organisations as they seek to reduce costs and create a closer link between expenditure and performance goals. Areas outside defence where PBC is applied include:{{citation needed|date=September 2012}}

PB Contracts as related to Sourcing Business ModelsProcurement/Sourcing Business ModelsA performance-based model is one of seven Sourcing Business Models.[7] Sourcing Business Models theory is a systems-based approach to structuring supplier relationships. A sourcing business model is a type of business model that is applied to business relationships where more than one party needs to work with another party to be successful. There are seven sourcing business models that range from the transactional to investment-based. The seven models are: Basic Provider, Approved Provider, Preferred Provider, Performance-Based/Managed Services Model, Vested Business Model, Shared Services Model, and Equity Partnership Model. Sourcing business models are targeted for procurement professionals seeking a modern approach for achieving the best fit between buyers and suppliers. Sourcing business model theory is based on a collaborative research effort by the University of Tennessee (UT), the Sourcing Industry Group [https://www.sig.org/] (SIG) the Center for Outsourcing Research and Education [https://www.core-outsourcing.org/cpages/home-page] (CORE), and the International Association for Contracts and Commercial Management (IACCM). Their initial research formed the basis for the 2015 book, Strategic Sourcing in the New Economy: Harnessing the Potential of Sourcing Business Models in Modern Procurement.[8] StudiesThere is discussion{{where|date=September 2012}} about the efficacy of PBC as a product support measure. However, there is significant research to suggest that PBC can reduce costs and result in better supplier outputs/performance against metrics than traditional contracting approaches, such as transaction-based contracts.[9] The U.S. Department of Defense/Air Force/Defense Acquisition University sponsored a research project conducted by the University of Tennessee study An American study into the effectiveness of PBC frameworks in Defence projects. The study found that projects employing a true PBC framework resulted in substantially lower costs and improved system readiness / capability when compared to non-PBC arrangements. The U.S. Department of Defense has many documented case studies from award-winning PBL contracts.[https://dap.dau.mil/acquipedia/Pages/ArticleDetails.aspx?aid=68d85f91-3fbf-4182-b55a-f2dbc5a33943] In addition, a study by Booz Allen Hamilton found that even incorporating a small amount of a PBC framework into weapons system support will create positive results. In a more general sense, implementing a PBC framework has a broad range of benefits for organisations, contractors and contracting agencies{{why|date=September 2012}}, including:
