Benefits of Using Endorsed Supplier Panel of ICT Specialist Recruitment Services

Benefits for the University

    • Panel suppliers can be engaged with ease. Contract terms have been agreed to in advance at a University level and services can be acquired via a purchase order pro forma.  This means hiring managers should experience reduced administrative cost in seeking quotes and completing the expressions of interest process.
    • Simplified purchasing processes. When engaging the panel provider no quotation is required as specified by Procurement Policies, Procedures and Guidelines.
    • The panel suppliers have agreed in advance to fixed maximum rates for the placement of candidates in continuing or fixed-term positions, and margin rates for temporary contractors. These rates are fixed maximum rates and will be on offer for the period of the contractual arrangement. 
    • Induction has been provided to each endorsed supplier ensuring a thorough understanding of the Monash culture.   This information provides a basis for seeking candidates who will fit the Monash environment. The suppliers will be expected to provide a briefing to each temporary contractor placed with the University. 
    • Focus on quality assurance will be achieved by the University through ongoing monitoring of appointed endorsed suppliers.  An annual review of the performance of the endorsed supplier panel will be conducted. 
    • Endorsed supplier panel has been carefully selected through a rigorous process ensuring suitability, experience and proven track record. 
    • Reduced overall purchasing costs for faculties and divisions.
    • Fee waiver for unsuitable temporary contractors and replacement if required, if notification occurs within the required timeframe. 
    • Fee waiver on placement fee if a temporary staff member applies for and accepts an advertised position in a different faculty or department than the one to which the temporary staff member was originally assigned, regardless of the timing. 
    • Capability to produce usage and financial reports which can be obtained on request.
