DH’s planning for the VADC has had ongoing impacts on data quality.
DH’s choice to use a standalone dataset specification for the VADC was in line with its strategic priorities. However, it did not adequately consult with the sector or vendors who would need to use it.
This meant that DH did not effectively manage the risk that service providers and vendors might not have the capability to meet the VADC's requirements.
In 2022–23, DH will pay $272.5 million to service providers to deliver AOD assessment, treatment and support services in Victoria. These services include counselling, withdrawal services and rehabilitation.
In 2016, DH developed the VADC to better align its data collection requirements with providers’ services and funding arrangements. DH started using the VADC for data reporting in July 2018.

We surveyed 13 entities to get information on how 102 major projects (with a TEI of $100 million or more) are performing against their expected cost, timeframes and scope.
This includes 11 new projects, 82 existing projects and 9 completed projects that are collectively worth $99.8 billion.
This chapter explores changes to these projects' cost, time and scope to date.
We collected information on each project’s key documents, such as business cases and benefits management plans.
