The Borough of Queenscliffe has an operating expenditure budget (excluding depreciation) of approximately $10,000,000 p.a., of which almost 50% relates to the procurement of materials and services including contracted services, and the balance largely relates to employee costs and the depreciation of Council assets.
The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance and direction on best practice principles, processes and procedures which must be applied to all purchases of goods, services and works by the Council, to enable consistency and control over the procurement activities of Council.
