Updated: Published an updated version of 'Common Areas of Spend: Fraud, Error & Debt'.
The Common Areas of Spend (CAS) work aims to establish agreed standard guidance and definitions by which departments can communicate on operational performance matters, streamlining data collection and improving data comparability over time. This set of documents provides definitions for a series of commonly requested operational management information. It is not guidance for data surveys or a data survey in itself, but provides definitions that underpin individual information requests.
Please note that the fraud, error and debt guidance is still under review and may be subject to minor revisions. Any further updates will be published on this website.
