TEN/0105 Prequalified Supplier Panel for Minor Electrical and Telecommunications Works

Summary and scope

Bundaberg Regional Council established a Register of Pre-Qualified Suppliers for Minor Electrical / Telecommunications Works Hire in January 2016, expiring 31 December 2021. The register is for frequently performed minor electrical and telecommunication works within the Bundaberg Regional Council area including, Air Conditioning/Refrigeration, CCTV, Communications / Radio, Fire Safety Systems, General Electrical Works, Industrial Works, Instrumentation / PLC, Network Data, Solar Systems, Sound AV / Projection, Telemetry / Scada, Traffic Lights and Electrical Poles. Current suppliers are invited to refresh their rates and product offering, in the Panel arrangement. New suppliers are also invited to enter the Panel during this refresher as set out under Section 232 of the Local Government Regulations (Qld 2012). Hourly rates will be utilised by Council for ad-hoc works under $15,000 (ex GST). In addition to this panel members will be given the opportunity to quote on larger works between $15,000 and $200,000 (ex GST). Suppliers will receive quote requests such as these through the e-procurement platform and will be required to submit and return quotes through the platform. Any works estimated to be above a $200,000 (ex GST) threshold will be treated as a separate contract and will be tendered independently to the panel. The selection of a Supplier from the register, for a particular job, will be at the discretion of Council officers, after consideration of the Suppliers listed details on capability or capacity and factors such as the nature of the work, the likely cost of responding at the required location and the Supplier’s assessed performance on previous works.
