ICN State offices in Victoria and Northern Territory are offering ICN-registered suppliers a new and exclusive platform that provides them with the opportunity to bid for more work.

Powered by VendorPanel, ICN Marketplace complements ICN’s existing services provided through ICN Gateway and targets lower-value general procurement, as well are recurring operational procurement activities, such as maintenance, repairs and operations minor civil works and small construction.

‘ICN is all about making it easier for Australian SMEs to unlock opportunities, and this partnership with VendorPanel gives SMEs in the NT and Victoria an extra avenue outside the already successful Gateway to tap into smaller work packages,’ ICN Limited Executive Director Derek Lark said.

‘ICN Marketplace will make it easier for suppliers to access small and mid-sized opportunities to grow their businesses, while Gateway focusses on larger packages.’

At a glance, ICN Marketplace will give NT and Victorian SMEs the chance to:

• win work with government and corporate clients, and
• be invited to quote on small tenders (typically $2,000 - $250,000+).

‘If you are based in NT or Victoria, the first step is to make sure your ICN company profile is complete,’ Derek said. ‘Then look out for an invitation to join and you can sign up in minutes, and there is no cost to join or use the service.’
