Complaints & management of contracts
nswbuy ensures you benefit from state contracts that are fair, transparent and assure probity. We are required by government to provide agencies with products and services at competitive prices.
The State Contracts Control Board is a statutory board which reports to the Minister for Commerce. The board monitors and advises on government procurement practice, authorises delegations and investigates and resolves complaints.
Complaints
Complaints about agency tenders are managed by the State Contracts Control Board chairperson. All industry should have the opportunity to be engaged as a supplier of state contracts. A business may make a complaint about being unnecessarily precluded from tendering or being penalised by contract terms. Information about making a complaint is included in newspaper advertisements for agency tenders.
