Procurement - supplying goods and services

The EECA (Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority) procurement team coordinates and oversees the sourcing, selection and contracting of goods and services for our organisation.

EECA’s procurement process

We prefer to use existing supply arrangements (such as established contracts and panels) before we approach the market with new tender opportunities.

All new opportunities to supply goods or services over $100,000 will be advertised on the Government Electronic Tendering Service (GETS), a free service provided by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE).

If you are interested in doing business with us, you can register by visiting the GETS website.

Our procurement framework

All EECA's procurement activities are made within the framework of the Government Procurement Rules and Principles, and the EECA Procurement Policy.

MBIE establishes standards of good practice for the procurement of goods, services and works by the New Zealand Public Sector. EECA applies these standards to our procurement activity.

MBIE has a guide that is part of a government initiative to help suppliers better engage with government and support good procurement practice. This guide:
- provides an overview of the government market
- describes the rules and processes that government agencies follow to buy goods and services
- outlines where to look for government opportunities
- provides tips on preparing and submitting a tender, to help you improve your chances of being chosen to provide goods or services to the Government
- explains the common jargon used in the tender process.

Further advice for suppliers(external link)
EECA is committed to delivering sustainable and inclusive government procurement practices that deliver public value for all New Zealand.

EECA contract for a range of different goods and services, and we require suppliers to follow the rules, principles, and ethical standards outlined in the code of conduct.

This code refers to the domestic supply chain. Some international supply chains can be more difficult to monitor, but we expect our suppliers to do so, and to take steps to resolve any known issues.
