The release comprises Bureau of Meteorology procurement records relating to KPMG, including blank and partly completed "Risk Assessment – Routine Procurements" templates and evaluation reports for two procurements. The first is an Evaluation Report for "Accelerated Reporting and Central Reporting Packages" (PRN 1140-2021-22), dated May 2022, covering a renewal of the KPMG reporting module licence used by the Bureau Finance team. Only one vendor was approached, the quote was about $547 (GST inclusive, figure partly garbled in the text), and the evaluation recommended a three-year contract for a discount. The second is a Low-Risk Evaluation Report for an "Internal audit service provider" (PRN 4425-2024-25), which rated KPMG "Very good" on value for money, with a Central Administration Fee also payable to the Department of Finance. Figures are partly obscured or garbled in the extracted text, so amounts should be checked against the original. The excerpt does not show any operational weather records, outages or ministerial briefings, and risk ratings in the templates are generally low.
