Independent Health and Aged Care Pricing Authority

Published long after it started

What it measures

The contract notice was published more than six months after the contract’s start date.

When it applies

Publication more than 180 days after the start date, for contracts worth $100,000 or more. AusTender does not publish the date a contract was signed, so we measure from the start date and allow a wide margin. Notices published in a batch are counted under “Published late in a batch” instead.

Why it matters

The Commonwealth Procurement Rules require agencies to report contracts on AusTender within 42 days of entering into them.

Common explanations

A start date set earlier than signing, to cover work under an earlier arrangement. A lease or agreement republished under a new notice when it was renewed or varied. Administrative delay in reporting.
