Accor Stadium Supply of Furniture - SACAP3770-2

Direct Procurement used and benchmarked against like for like Allianz Members furniture.

In accordance with the Venues NSW Procurement Manual and Policy, the estimated spend for this package requires the procurement method of Request for Tender to be utilised. However, given the already pre-determined specifications, the supply only requirement, simplified evaluation criteria and the limitation of time to conduct a complete tendering process, is it deemed this procurement is of a low risk nature and a Request for Quote process is suffice to achieve Value for Money with the relevant VNSW approval in accordance with the VNSW Financial Delegations. 

Pre-selection of highly capable supplier list was based on the following assessment: 

-  ability to supply the desired furniture  

-  achieve delivery times 

-  supply network adequate to fulfil the large volumes required and vast variety of specifications; 

-  Capacity to hold stock and provide a Just-In-Time delivery where required; 

-  Ability to provide after sales support when required; and 

-  Ability to provide volume discounts and/or other value-adds to VNSW. 

Value for money was tested in two ways: 

-  Ensuring the total value of the package was within the pre-determined allocated budget, and 

-  Benchmarking the selected furniture against the members furniture purchase for Allianz
