Queensland Government Procurement Policy 2026

Commencing on 1 January 2026, the Queensland Procurement Policy 2026 (QPP 2026) is the government’s new overarching policy for the procurement of goods and services.

It sets a bold vision to achieve positive procurement outcomes that create a strong and sustainable future for Queensland, and is underpinned by five strategic pillars reflecting the values, aspirations and priorities of the Queensland Government.

The QPP 2026 is the lead document for the Queensland Procurement Framework (Framework).

Our Framework adopts a unified, whole-of-government approach which ensures a consistent experience for suppliers and reduces administrative burdens for buyers.

In turn, the Framework leverages best-in-class procurement practices that deliver tangible benefits to Queensland communities.
