Box Hill Institute

 | Box Hill Institute

Box Hill &nbsp;Institute is an active participant in the local economy. Box Hill &nbsp;is non-discriminatory and encourages participation and competition from various suppliers including small and medium enterprises, social benefit suppliers and locally based businesses. Our Procurement Policy and Framework align with the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.buyingfor.vic.gov.au/policies">Victorian Government Purchasing Board (VGPB) supply policies</a>&nbsp;and directives established under the&nbsp;Financial Management Act 1994 (VIC).&nbsp;

Box Hill &rsquo;s approach to procurement is underpinned by four key principles&nbsp;
<img src="https://www.datocms-assets.com/6783/1660528619-add-a-little-bit-of-body-text-1.png" width="520" height="583" />
<h3>Value for money&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
When making procurement decisions Box Hill &nbsp;will use its judgment of&nbsp;a&nbsp; range of financial and non-financial factors, such as quality, cost, fit for purpose, the total cost of ownership, and risk. Box Hill &nbsp;is committed to generating social, economic, and environmental outcomes that benefit the Victorian community and align with our Social Procurement Strategy.&nbsp;
<h3>Accountability&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
Decisions made by authorised staff are formed following the Box Hill &nbsp;Procurement Framework. All Box Hill &nbsp;employees and contractors involved in procurement exercise appropriate levels of delegation.&nbsp;
<h3>Probity&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
Ensuring standards of behaviour and actions in the conduct of procurement processes including equity, confidentiality, avoiding conflicts of interest, and consumer/supplier confidence in the integrity of government procurement processes.&nbsp;
<h3>Scalability and risk&nbsp;&nbsp;</h3>
When appropriate, Box Hill will increase value and outcomes for students and industry by seeking to enter aggregated purchasing arrangements. The risk of the activity should be assessed to ensure the appropriate resourcing is in place in relation to the complexity and risk associated with the purchase of goods and services. To reduce the risk Box Hill &nbsp;will consider State government contracts to achieve its procurement outcomes. This includes the use of state purchasing contracts, registers, and panels.&nbsp;

<h3>State Purchasing Contracts and supplier registers</h3>
As a&nbsp;Victorian Public Sector Agency&nbsp;Box Hill &nbsp;is mandated&nbsp;to&nbsp;purchase&nbsp;goods and services&nbsp;via State Purchasing Contracts&nbsp;(SPCs)&nbsp;and supplier registers or directories&nbsp;established&nbsp;by VGPB.&nbsp;&nbsp;
These whole-of-Victorian Government contracts, panels,&nbsp;registers,&nbsp;or directories have been&nbsp;designed&nbsp;to streamline procurement&nbsp;activities enabling Box Hill &nbsp;to make the most of economies of scale when buying from the marketplace and reduce many&nbsp;risks&nbsp;by accessing pre-negotiated contract terms and conditions.&nbsp;&nbsp;
For more information about State Purchasing Contracts and Registers go to&nbsp;the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.buyingfor.vic.gov.au/">Buying for Victoria</a>&nbsp;website.&nbsp;&nbsp;
If you are a supplier of goods and services covered by an &ldquo;open&rdquo; Supplier Register such as&nbsp;&nbsp;
<ul>
 <li>Ethical Supplier&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
 <li>eServices&nbsp;</li>
 <li>IT&nbsp;Infrastructure Services&nbsp;</li>
 <li>Marketing Services Register&nbsp;(MSR)&nbsp;</li>
 <li>Professional Advisory Services (PAS)&nbsp;</li>
 <li>The Construction Supplier Register.</li>
</ul>
Box Hill &nbsp;encourages you to make&nbsp;inquiries&nbsp;to join these registers.&nbsp;Our&nbsp;preference is to engage with suppliers that on these Supplier Registers. It makes doing business easier for you and us.&nbsp;When goods and services are not supplied via a&nbsp;SPC&nbsp;or register, Box Hill &nbsp;will engage with the open market following its own procurement policies and processes.&nbsp;
To find out more about how to join&nbsp;a&nbsp;panel or register go to&nbsp;the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.buyingfor.vic.gov.au/node/580">Buying&nbsp;for&nbsp;Vic&nbsp;website&nbsp;and Register as a Supplier.</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h3>Tender opportunities and our procurement activity plan&nbsp;</h3>
Box Hill &nbsp;publicly advertises its major and significant procurement opportunities via the&nbsp;Tenderlink&nbsp;or the Victorian Government Tenders System. Suppliers are encouraged to register as users and use these systems to respond to request to quote or tender. In 2022, Box Hill &nbsp;intends to publish a procurement activity plan to&nbsp;assist&nbsp;suppliers in preparing future submissions. Please check back here to see our procurement activity plan closer to this&nbsp;date.&nbsp;
