Whenever possible, Council proudly supports local businesses to supply our required goods and services. In keeping with our commitment to give local business every chance to quote or tender for our contracts, Council has moved to VendorPanel, an e-procurement site, making the process easier for us as well as our suppliers.
VendorPanel Marketplace uses geolocation to help us easily identify local suppliers and invite them to quote on work, both goods and services. The system also makes it easier for suppliers to download our requests and upload responses.
Please register your business with VendorPanel Marketplace as soon as possible because, as from 1 October 2022, all calls for quotes/tenders from Council will only be processed through this mechanism and ideally Council would like to continue working with your business.
Registration is free, takes only a few moments to complete and, as a bonus, your business profile will also be visible to external companies.
To register for VendorPanel Marketplace:
- Go to https://info.vendorpanel.com/workwithmareebashirecouncil/
- Search and select the most appropriate category for your business
- Click on the link, complete your profile and be visible to buyers!
Once registered, your business will receive email notifications as projects arise, inviting you to submit an offer.
Should you require assistance to register, please direct your enquiry to Council’s Tenders and Contracts Officer via email tenders@msc.qld.gov.au or via telephone on 1300 308 461.
