Contracts and Amendments

The following data presents aggregated information on the total value of contracts awarded, and does not reflect annual expenditure. Contracts and Contract Amendments valued at or above $10,000 AUD inc GST are reported on AusTender to provide transparency of contract values over the life of the contract.

There are various reasons for contract amendments such as exercising an option within a contract to increase the volume of goods or services required by the administering agency, or undertaking price variations as agreed to when establishing the arrangement resulting in an increase to the contract value.

This report is updated on a quarterly basis, and provides access to contracts and contract amendments reported on AusTender for the previous ten financial years.

A Panel arrangement, also commonly referred to as a Standing Offer, is a tool for the procurement of goods and/or services regularly acquired by entities.

In a Panel arrangement one or more suppliers have been appointed to supply identified goods or services for a set period of time under pre-determined terms and conditions, including a basis for pricing.

To be listed on a Standing Offer you must submit a Tender Response for evaluation and, if successful you can then be included on the arrangement when the Standing Offer is established or refreshed.

Once the Panel is established, additional suppliers can only be added to the Panel if it is established as a refreshable arrangement.

If you have any questions relating to a specific Standing Offer you can get in touch with the agency responsible via the Standing Offer contact details.
