Justin McKenzie – Chief Procurement Officer Overview

• Government owned Corporation (GOC) - 100% owned by NT Government

• Provides electricity, water and sewerage services to the four major regional areas as well as 72 communities and 66 outstations

• Supplies gas to the NT’s major power stations that are primarily gas- fuelled Procurement Sourcing Rules

Key differences with NTG:

Three grades of procurement values (GST exclusive)

• Grade 1: $0 to $49,999 – min. one quote required (mandatory one Territory Enterprise quote – exemptions may apply)

• Grade 2: $50,000 to $199,999 – min. three quotes required (mandatory min. one Territory Enterprise – exemptions may apply)

• Grade 3: $200,000 and over – open tender advertised publicly online Territory Enterprise Participation

Territory Enterprise must meet three key criteria:

1. Operating in the NT –supplier is engaged in delivery of goods or services within NT.

2. Significant permanent presence in the NT – supplier maintains an office, manufacturing facilities or other permanent base within the NT.

3. Employing NT residents – sole trader, or employs Territorians on an ongoing basis. A supplier that relies exclusively on transient, interstate/international labour or FIFO workforce will not satisfy this requirement. Territory Enterprise Participation

Territory Economic Reconstruction Commission Recommendations Territory Economic Reconstruction Commission – Next Steps

PL2 recommends a Darwin pilot redevelopment and a regional pilot redevelopment • Identify potential sites that might support redevelopment by the Community Housing Sector, noting that the opportunity will not be limited to these sites. • An Expression of Interest (EoI) process will be carried out in July for both the Darwin redevelopment and the regional redevelopment. • The sector will be encouraged to put forward ideas to realise these redevelopment opportunities. • EoI responses will be assessed, including feasibility studies. These responses will inform the next stage, which maybe a RFP process, or direct negotiation. Territory Economic Reconstruction Commission Recommendations
