This policy is reviewed periodically in response to feedback from the Board, agencies, changes in government policy or law, or to correct errors or omissions.
This version (version 4.0) updates the version issued in October 2014 (version 3.1). The substantive policy changes from version 3.1 are:
recognising that agencies may decide to retain intellectual property of products created as a
result of a procurement activity
noting that from 1 September 2015 onwards, all agencies should cease print advertising of government tenders and only advertise tenders electronically.
