Consultation has concluded
The Northern Territory Government is developing an Aboriginal Contracting Framework that will support Aboriginal employment and business opportunities through government contracting, including procurement and grants.
Supporting Aboriginal employment opportunities will benefit the Territory by growing the local economy, increasing business and regional development and building the local Territory workforce.
The new Aboriginal Contracting Framework has been developed through an extensive stakeholder engagement process that saw the team meet with almost 1,000 government, industry, business, NGO and Aboriginal stakeholders, with the team hosting over sixty (60) workshops, a number of focus group sessions and multiple one-on-one meetings in Darwin, Nhulunbuy, Katherine, Alice Springs, Tennant Creek and seven (7) remote communities including Wadeye, Wurrumiyanga, Maningrida, Alyangula, Borroloola, Ntaria and Mutitjulu.
Project update
Consultation has concluded.
The Northern Territory Government is developing a suite of policies to activate its procurement and grants spend to create more opportunities for Aboriginal participation in the Northern Territory economy.
This will include an overarching framework along with targeted polices for procurement and grants.
Informed through consultation with a range of stakeholders over the past three years, these are important initiatives that will benefit the Territory by fuelling growth and jobs, particularly in regional areas.
