Tenders and Business Opportunities

Murrindindi Shire Council tenders and business opportunities are managed through an electronic online portal. The online portal provides a web-based tool that makes it easier for organisations to take part in procurement and grant opportunities. The online portal ensures that everyone is able to easily find out about opportunities by checking the website. It also helps ensure that everyone gets access to the same information at the same time, making the process fair and transparent.
