The EOI has been advertised on the Victorian Government's online tender advertisement site, Tenders Vic - www.tenders.vic.gov.au. Registration of Expressions of Interest close on 2 March 2017.
Access to the EOI documents, participation in an online forum and registration of an Expression of Interest requires registration as a user of Tenders Vic. Instructions are on the Tenders Vic home page.
Successful registrants will form a panel to be used to invite quotes for the provision of home modification and associated services for State-wide Equipment Program (SWEP) clients and National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) participants in Victoria. The panel is expected to operate to 30 June 2019.
The services required under the EOI primarily relate to Builders. It is anticipated individual trades - Carpenters, Plumbers, Electricians and providers of adjunct services, such as drafting and engineering - will generally be engaged via a registered Builder, as part of a project/engagement managed by that Builder. However, individual tradespeople are also invited to register their interest.
Individuals or organisations involved only in supply (retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers, etc.) and not installation, are not expected to register their interest.
All questions, requests for additional information or clarification must be posted to the Tenders Vic online forum. SWEP staff will not respond to enquiries in relation to the EOI.
