Welcome to Buying for Victoria

Welcome to the Buying for Victoria Supplier Portal (formerly Tenders VIC). This is the central place for all suppliers to register interest in supplying to Victorian Government.

Please also visit the new Buying for Victoria website. This website is the first step to providing Victorian suppliers and buyers with a single location to access procurement information.
The website also features the Social Procurement Framework, which is a program to harness the buying power of the Victorian Government to create social benefit for Victorian Communities.
 

UPDATE REQUIRED TO SUPPLIER REGISTRATION FORM:

Two new additional fields have been added to the Supplier Registration page to better understand the business size of each supplier and the supplier location.  The fields included are as follows:

1) A question asking how many employees you have.  There is a drop down field to answer this question, with options being:

- 1 to 19 employees
- 19 to 199 employees, and
- more than 199 employees.

2) A question asking is your business location in Victoria.  The options to answer this question are Yes and No.

Your business location is in Victoria if you have premises and operations in Victoria.

This information will help the Government to identify opportunities to undertake social procurement, in line with the recently released Victoria's Social Procurement Framework.
