Indigenous Business Australia – Procurement Workshop – VIRTUAL

Want to grow your Indigenous business? Learn how to pitch for government and corporate contracts 

Join us for a free online Procurement Workshop to learn how to access real opportunities through government and corporate contracts. This workshop is designed to help you build on your knowledge and become more confident in pitching for large contracts.  

Why this matters 

Procurement is simply the term governments and larger companies use for buying goods and services. That could mean anything from catering and construction to graphic design, cleaning, or consulting.  

Since 2015, the IPP has performed well against these KPIs, generating over $9.5 billion in contracting opportunities for Indigenous businesses. This has involved over 64,000 contracts awarded to more than 3,900 Indigenous businesses (www.niaa.gov.au).

State governments and private companies also have similar programs. Often, as part of their Reconciliation Action Plans (RAPs) – these organisations have targets to buy from Indigenous businesses. 

But the process can be tricky. This workshop is here to help you understand the procurement process and take the next step. 

This workshop can help you understand: 

• The Government’s Indigenous Procurement Policy (IPP) and how it supports Indigenous businesses 

• How the buying process works 

• How to apply for tenders and contracts and demonstrate that your business can deliver.
