Glossary

We understand that procurement can be confusing. Organisations often use different terms to describe the same thing. With that in mind, we designed this glossary to make buying with us and navigating our website easier. It is not designed to be an extensive list of all procurement terms.



P

Prior information notice

A public notice that alerts the market about potential procurement opportunities, allowing suppliers to prepare and research before a formal tender is issued.

This is replaced by Planned Procurement Notice under the Procurement Act 2023.
