Procurement Policy

This Procurement Policy is made under Section 108 of the Local Government Act 2020 (the Act).

The Act requires each council to:

• Prepare and adopt a procurement policy which specifies the principles, processes and procedures applying in respect of the purchase of goods and services and carrying out of works by the Council; and
• Review its procurement policy at least once during each 4-year term of the Council.

This Policy has been developed collaboratively by the Loddon Mallee Procurement Network (LMPN) with a view to facilitating smooth collaborative procurement processes, consistent with the Act.
