Enhancing Workplace Performance for Queensland Councils
Your trusted partner for temporary and permanent recruitment through LocalBuy panels LB297 & LB334
About the Panels
The LB297 & LB334 Arrangement provides councils and authorised buyers across Queensland with streamlined access to a panel of pre-approved suppliers. These arrangements are fully compliant with procurement legislation and eliminates the need for a separate open tender process, regardless of the contract value. By leveraging these panels, organisations can significantly reduce procurement timeframes and administrative burden, while ensuring transparency, compliance, and value for money.
