Banana Shire Council uses VendorPanel Marketplace for Business

Banana Shire Council has launched VendorPanel Marketplace an online procurement platform that helps Council buyers find local suppliers and award contracts. VendorPanel Marketplace is entirely free for suppliers and offers a way to get in front of Banana Shire Council buyers and have a fair go at winning the work.

VendorPanel uses geolocation to make it easy for Council to identify local suppliers and invite them to submit quotes and proposals for their projects and works. Suppliers are encouraged to register on the VendorPanel Marketplace platform. If you would like to register now, visit VendorPanel Marketplace

Once registered, suppliers can receive invitations to quote on work across dozens of categories, from building products to transportation and freight. The platform manages all communication between Council and suppliers, reducing admin, saving time, and ensuring procurement best practice is followed. If suppliers are already registered with VendorPanel Marketplace re-registering is not required, however updating and or confirming current details is recommended.

What does this mean for local businesses and suppliers?

  • VendorPanel Marketplace will make local businesses more visible to Council buyers.
  • Council encourages local suppliers/ businesses to register their business details with VendorPanel Marketplace
  • Council purchasing staff will have immediate access to a wide range of suppliers/ businesses to approach for quotations on upcoming work.

  • It will be easier for businesses/ suppliers to respond to a Council request for a quote
  • VendorPanel Marketplace provides opportunities for businesses and suppliers to be visible to other Councils and government entities within Australia that utilise VendorPanel Marketplace

Is it really free?

Yes it is completely free for suppliers to register, receive and respond to invitations.

What if I already have a Vendor Panel Account?

Register using your existing account using your email address so everything can be managed in one place. If your organisation has more than one user, ask your VendorPanel Administrator to register for the Marketplace using their user details so all of your information stays linked.

If you are already registered in VendorPanel (eg for Tender purposes and/or Local Buy arrangements) it is still required to register in the Marketplace area to ensure Council buyers see that your organisation is available for receiving quotations in the categories that suit your business.

Can I register under more than one category?

Yes you can register under more than one category. When doing so please follow these steps:

  1. Visit the VendorPanel market place website www.vendorpanel.com.au
  2. Click on the category and sub categories that best suit your business
  3. Enter the business name, email address and follow the screen prompts (ensuring that the email address is the same as the one used when setting up the account)
  4. An email will be sent to the email addresses provided confirming details
  5. Click on the email and log into the businesses profile
  6. Check that the additional categories have been added to the business profile

Why is choosing my category so important when registering?

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.

What if you are on a supplier list with another colleague and you decline an invitation, can the colleague still access that Quote?

Yes they can. An example is that you could have 5 colleagues on a list and they will all receive an invitation to Quote posted to that list. If one person declines to respond, they will no longer receive notifications regarding that particular opportunity. Other colleagues can still respond to the request and the Vendor Administrator will be able to see if there is a response submitted or in draft. Only if the Administrator declines to respond will the opportunity close and the buyer be notified.

What if your product or services are not listed as a category on Marketplace?

If your product or service is not listed please email VendorPanel directly on support@vendorpanel.com.au

How do I see what my company looks like to Council?

If you click on “Supplier lists you manage” from your dashboard there is the option to ‘preview details’. This will bring up your profile as it is displayed to buyers.

How do I register?

Simply go to www.vendorpanel.com.au/marketplace
