Do you want to be one of our suppliers or contractors? Registering your interest to become a supplier is the first step to doing business with us. We’ll need some information to assess your capabilities in supplying goods or services first. 

You may want to register if:

  • you want to bid on a public tender
  • one of our representatives has asked you to register
  • you wish to be considered for future tenders and opportunities
  • you are not already one of our suppliers or contractors. 

Please note that completing the registration process is not a confirmation that you are successful in obtaining work from us. We evaluate every application fairly. 

Assessing applications ensures all our suppliers and contractors are committed to satisfying health, safety and environmental requirements.
