“The implementation of LinkSafe’s software has provided the team a streamlined process of contractor prequalification and induction to ensure records are maintained in a one source of truth system.”

– Lee Taig, Contract & Procurement Officer of Greater Bendigo City Council

The Background

The Greater Bendigo City Council (the City) is a local government body whose clients consist of varied sectors, such as Civil works, consultancy, architecture, service providers, supply & delivery of goods.

The Challenge

According to Lee, the main challenge faced was dealing with a manual paper-based process for managing the City’s contractors and suppliers.

The Solution

LinkSafe provided the council with a simple, straight-forward process to record contractor information, as well as setting up a reliable foundation for an electronic-based system. The council has now implemented a primary system that supports the requirements of contractor prequalification, inductions as well as record keeping.

With the implementation of LinkSafe’s software, the Bendigo City Council has successfully moved from a 100% paper-based system to a one source of truth electronic system, thus ensuring that continued compliance is maintained by issuing email notifications and weekly reports.

The Results

LinkSafe has provided Greater Bendigo City Council with the necessary tools to effectively simplify their paper-based process of contractor prequalification and inductions through the implementation of LinkSafe’s primary, central system that captures and manages large quantities of crucial data.
