The sourcing and selection of suppliers typically involves a number of stages, including (but not limited to):

1. Identifying VicTrack's need for goods or services
2. Inviting suppliers to quote/ submit a proposal or tender
3. Assessing suppliers based on a range of criteria, including (but not limited to) 


a. Best value for money over the duration of the contract
b. Quality and performance
c. Timeliness, reliability and capacity to supply
d. Innovation and contribution to VicTrack’s competitive position
e. Social and environmental performance
f. Health and Safety considerations
g. Commercial risk

 

How we engage with suppliers depends on the complexity of the procurement being undertaken and the nature of the marketplace.

 

You must register as a potential VicTrack supplier in Zycus Supplier Network to submit a tender, expression of interest (EOI) or quote.

All requests for tenders and EOIs are advertised on the Buying for Victoria Portal.
