Section A: Achieve Value for Money

Section A of the Western Australian Procurement Rules lists the Achieve Value for Money rules that apply to all State agencies and all types of procurement including goods, services and works.

This Section is part of the WA Procurement Rules (Procurement Direction 2021/02) that apply to all State agencies, as defined in the Procurement Act 2020 

The Rules replace the State Supply Commission’s policies and apply to all types of procurement including goods, services and works. The WA Social Procurement Framework supports value for money factors in the Rules.

  2. State agencies must consider value for money outcomes at all stages of the Procurement lifecycle, especially during planning and decision making.
