ACC contracts with many treatment and rehabilitation providers to enable the provision of assessment, planning and treatment services to ACC clients. The information set out below will help you through the process of locating contracting opportunities and applying for contracts to provide services.
Advertising of services for tender
All services for tender are published online through the Government Electronic Tenders Services (GETS) website (www.gets.govt.nz). To view information on these opportunities you will have to register with GETS, which can be done through its website.
To receive notification of when services for tender are being advertised you can register with the GETS TenderWatch service (this is free of charge and can also be arranged through the GETS website). TenderWatch provides email alerts about new services for tender and updates on processes you have previously accessed.
To submit an electronic tender for a contract with ACC you will have to register to use the contract management system.
Open and closed services
ACC publishes information on services which are either ‘open’ or ‘closed’.
Open services are those that you can apply for contracts at any time, unless a notice is published on the GETS website advising that applications are closed.
Closed services are those which are not open for general application. You can only join closed services when a notice has been placed on GETS seeking a response and/or application.
Awarding contracts
ACC reserves the right to not award contracts for either open or closed services.
