Buying Direct

Public Authorities in the South West region may purchase from the GBA as outlined below.

The suppliers will provide a discount to the retail price (shelf price) or wholesale price for products purchased from this GBA.

Buyers can pick and buy products from any of the contracted suppliers and from any product category in accordance with the following Buying Rules:

MONETARY THRESHOLD BUYING PROCESS

Products valued up to $50,000 per order Panel suppliers may be accessed directly.

Products valued above $50,000 per order Formally request sufficient number of written quotations from relevant Panel Members.

Orders should be placed directly with contractors using one of the methods indicated in each contractor’s details.

Buyers should check each individual contractor’s details as to which method is preferred for placing orders.

If you are using a contractor for the first time, you will probably need to establish a new account.

Retail Purchases

The GBA is established for purchasing food and grocery products. Contracts are a combination of local retailers and wholesalers. Buyers should use the GBA as much as possible and look to consolidate their food and grocery purchases to avoid potential surcharges.

Payments

The Contractor will invoice the buyer directly and the buyer will pay the contractor directly.

No surcharges are applicable for payment by Corporate Credit Card/Government Purchasing

Card.

Payment by Purchasing Card

The Government Purchasing Card offers a quick and convenient method of payment allowing many goods and services to be efficiently purchased.

Always remember to inform the supplier that you will be paying by Government Purchasing

Card, at the time of ordering the product or service, and ensure they clearly understand that they must send the tax invoice directly to you, the cardholder.

Department of Finance Page 27

Buyers Guide – GBA Supply of Food and Groceries in the South West Region GBA201410882

Delivery Details

In most cases, delivery is free-into-store for Public A uthorities located within the Contractor’s nominated location/s. Refer to the Contractor Details to find out if minimum order quantities are applicable.

Discount Rate

Suppliers have offered a Discount Rate to the retail or wholesale price for all food and grocery products in the relevant category. The discount applies to the retail or wholesale price on the day of the order.

Given that the GBA is non-mandatory for the region, if the supplier prices are not competitive, agency buyers have the option to buy elsewhere (however, the agency buyer would then need to ensure that the purchase complied with State Supply Commission requirements).

The Discount Rate is fixed for the first year of the contract. On each anniversary of the contract commencement date (1 July), increases or decreases in the Discount Rate are permitted.

Backorders/Substitutes

Contractors will take all reasonable steps to ensure that backorders are kept to a minimum throughout the operation of the Contract.

The following procedure applies to all backorders and substitute products:

Prior notice must be given to the Customer, with an anticipated delivery date;

The substitute product shall be of equal or superior quality;

The substitute product shall be supplied at no higher cost than the originally ordered brand; and

A sample of the substitute or nutritional information about the substitute shall be provided to the Customer, if requested.

Returns

The contractor is obliged to pay all costs, including freight costs, incurred by the agency as a result of incorrectly supplied products.

Acceptance of Products

Neither the delivery of the product or payment of the product constitutes acceptance of the product by the buyer.

You should inspect the products on arrival to ensure they match your purchase order and then accept or reject the products.

Products are deemed to have been accepted:

if the buyer notifies the contractor that the product have been accepted; or

i f the contractor hasn’t been notified of a rejection of products within ten (10) business days after the delivery of the product.

Rejection of Products

Products may be rejected if they do not conform to the specification stated in the contract or purchase order. A notice of rejection may only be issued within ten (10) business days after the delivery of the product to the buyer. If the notice of rejection is not issued within this period, the products will be deemed to have been accepted. Any rejected products must be removed at the expense of the contractors.

EVIEWS

The Department of Finance aims to continuously improve the services it provides to Buyers via a range of review processes.

Contract reviews, coordinated by the Department of Finance, aim to:

ensure prices charged to agencies reflect the correct contracted price;

ensure products sold on this GBA reflect the range of products agreed for supply;

examine contracted suppliers performance;

assess buyer satisfaction; and

monitor compliance with Government Policies and Australian laws.

Buyer Feedback

You may provide feedback on the level of satisfaction experienced; or suggest improvements to the GBA or Buyers Guide at any time. Please forward your recommendations for

improvements to the Contract Manager .

All feedback received is taken into account as part of the contract review process. This feedback allows the Department of Finance to identify areas where service levels or product range needs to be improved. Your cooperation in this effort is greatly appreciated.

Contractor Performance Review

T he Department of Finance will review contracted suppliers’ performance by receipt of

feedback on specific incidences from agencies. The form in Appendix 2

is to be used to record the contracted suppliers performance during the contract period, as required. The form provides for both complimentary feedback and complaint resolution considerations.

On the majority of occasions, contracted suppliers supply acceptable products and/or services. However, these outcomes are rarely formally recorded. The opportunity exists to recognise satisfactory, as well as poor performance, by completing the form and forwarding it to the Contract Manager. In this way, an ongoing record can be maintained of a contracted supplier’s performance during the term of the GBA.

Complaint Resolution

If you are dissatisfied with the products and/or service provided by the contracted supplier or have any specific concerns, these should be discussed in the first instance directly with the contracted supplier.

If the problem or issue is not resolved to your satisfaction it should be referred to the

Contract Manager for assistance. In most cases minor issues, complaints and concerns can be suitably resolved to the satisfaction of both parties without any major impact on the contract.

However, if you consider the matter to be of a serious nature, the Contract Manager should be advised through the completion and forwarding of the C ontractor’s Performance Review form. To help resolve the complaint, please record the following details when completing the

Contractor Performance Review Form:

nature of the complaint;

when the complaint was made;

to whom the complaint was made;

the issues involved;

 the contractor’s response; and

any other relevant details.
