We help government agencies to deliver better public services for better public value.
Getting procurement right produces better outcomes for New Zealanders. We can make this happen with good government policy, excellent procurement practices and well-informed strategic advice.
Each year, government agencies spend approximately $51.5 billion, around 20% of the country’s GDP, procuring a wide range of goods and services from third party suppliers.
We help government deliver better value and wider cultural, economic, environmental and social outcomes. New Zealand Government Procurement (NZGP) does this by lifting procurement capability and performance. We make procurement easier by providing comprehensive support and sharing knowledge, processes, templates and insights.
NZGP manages the Government Electronic Tenders Service (GETS) and New Zealand’s All-of-Government contracts for common goods and services.
We collect reporting from agencies, schools and suppliers on how they meet government expectations. NZGP assesses agency commercial capability through the Procurement Capability Index and conducts surveys to better understand the needs of New Zealand organisations.
We help government agencies with each aspect of the procurement process. Read more about our specific services and initiatives at the pages below.
NZGP also works to streamline the procurement process through innovative digital tools. Every day, government agencies across Aotearoa New Zealand create hundreds of procurement documents. Our online templates for these documents are automated to help government agency staff create quick and accurate versions that are less repetitive to fill.
