Updated: Updated procurement document
The Common Areas of Spend (CAS) work aims to establish agreed standard guidance and definitions. These enable departments to 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.
