Draft Procurement Policy

Procurement Policy

At its meeting of 27 June 2019, Council resolved to place the draft Procurement Policy on public exhibition for a period of 28 days.

A copy of this Policy can be found on Council’s website – About Us> Have your Say> Open for Public Comment.

Council's Procurement Policy is designed to ensure that all expenditure of public funds on the purchase of goods and services results in the best possible value for Moree Plains Shire Council and the community.

Council staff have carried out extensive reviews of the current Procurement and Local Supplier Preference policies following a request from Council. The policies have been extensively workshopped by Council where it was discussed at length regarding the options for the policies in the future. Recommendations from this workshop have been incorporated into the Draft Policy.

To enable a strong link between the Procurement guidelines and the Local Supplier Preference guidelines for Council staff, these two separate policies have been combined into one draft Procurement Policy.

A hard copy of the Policy is available from Council’s customer service centres in Moree and Mungindi and the Moree Community Library.

Your feedback and comments are welcomed by Sunday, 11 August 2019 and can be submitted to the General Manager, Moree Plains Shire Council, PO Box 420, Moree NSW 2400. Comments can also be submitted to Council by email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
