State Procurement Board

Policy Framework

The Procurement Policy Framework operates as an umbrella document for the Board's individual policies and guidelines, providing background and context for the Board's policy development program.

Policies and guidelines are developed through consultation with public authorities and promote good procurement management practices that recognise differences in the complexity, risk and value of procurement proposals, ensuring a more consistent approach to procurement planning and decision-making across government.
