Doing business with Council

Learn how to supply to Council and access tender opportunities.

Council purchases a wide range of goods, services and works to deliver value and outcomes for the community.

This page is your central hub for understanding how Council procures, where opportunities are advertised, and what businesses should have in place before responding to tenders.

Whether you are new to government procurement or seeking to strengthen your tender readiness, the information and resources below will help you understand what’s required and how to get started.

How procurement works at Council

Council’s approach focuses on achieving best value for money, which means looking beyond price to consider factors such as quality, capability, risk, and broader social, economic and environmental outcomes.

Depending on the value and risk of the purchase, Council will generally:

  • seek quotes from suppliers (including from an established supplier arrangement) for contracts with a value below $500,000
  • release public tenders for contracts with a value of $500,000 or more, or
  • establish supplier arrangements where similar goods or services are regularly required. Supplier arrangements are established through a public tender process.

To support businesses seeking procurement opportunities, a suite of fact sheets has been developed to provide practical guidance on procurement processes, tender readiness and the capabilities often valued by government and large organisational buyers.

These resources include:

Together, they provide practical information to help you better understand procurement opportunities, strengthen your tender readiness, meet common compliance requirements, and demonstrate the broader social, economic and environmental value that is increasingly considered during procurement evaluations.
