| Agencies must consult with the Industry Capability Network Tasmania (ICNTAS), at the project planning stage, for all goods and services procurements over $2 million, to determine the need for an Industry Participation Plan.
An Industry Participation Plan (IPP) is a strategic document aimed at improving opportunities for local business in Government funded or resourced projects. The IPP ensures that government buyers structure purchasing processes in such a way that a project proponent considers issues relevant to the particular purchase that will impact on local participation. Such issues would include how local industry participation will be maximised and what strategies have been developed to provide local industry with a full, fair and reasonable opportunity to participate in a government project or major development.
Further information on Industry Participation Plans can be obtained from the ICNTAS at info@icntas.org,au. |
