Why is category selection important during the registration process?

Local businesses and suppliers should register in all the categories that best represent the goods and/or services available to Council. This will help raise awareness with Council purchasing staff that a business/supplier exists in a particular category.

Businesses/suppliers are encouraged to register in more than one category if relevant to the goods and/or services they provide

How do I register under more than one category?

Complete the following steps:

Visit the VendorPanel Marketplace website
Click on the category and subcategories that best suit your business.
Enter the business name, email address and follow the screen prompts (ensuring that the email address is identical to the one used when initially setting up the account).
An email will be sent to the email address provided to confirm all details provided.
Click on the email and log into the business's profile.
Check that the additional categories have been added to the business profile.

What if a business/supplier is an existing business/supplier on an established arrangement on VendorPanel, does that business/supplier still need to register?

Yes. The VendorPanel Marketplace is different to being an existing business/supplier on an established arrangement on VendorPanel.

The VendorPanel Marketplace will be used for quotations sought from businesses/suppliers where goods and/or services are not able to be sourced from an established arrangement.

Clause 8.1 and 8.2 of the Service Provider Agreement state that a fee may be charged; however Council states that registration is free. Will a fee be charged?

There is no charge to suppliers who register to the Marketplace environment and no ongoing fees to suppliers who register to Marketplace.

Clauses 8.1 and 8.2 provide VendorPanel Pty Ltd the right to charge suppliers if additional functionality is built into Marketplace in the future. Prior to suppliers gaining access to any additional functionality, suppliers will be advised if a fee is applicable.d
