Subcontracting
Information for service providers contracted by us, about the additional responsibilities and obligations of subcontracting, and the requirements for obtaining consent to subcontract.
What to do if you want to change agreed subcontracting arrangements
For agreed subcontracting to other organisations (excluding labour hire)
The conditions of consent to subcontract include notifying us immediately, in writing, if:
- you decide not to subcontract any or all of the agreed services to any or all of the agreed organisations
- you want to change and/or terminate the subcontracting arrangement with any or all of the agreed organisations, or
- any of the agreed organisations is involved in a merger, acquisition or amalgamation.
In these circumstances, we’ll advise you of how to proceed, in consideration of the importance of maintaining your capacity and capability to deliver the services. If we consider the changes to the subcontracting arrangement will pose a risk to delivery of the services, we may withdraw our consent to subcontract.
The conditions of consent to subcontract also require you to make a new application for consent to subcontract if you want to either:
- subcontract any services other than the agreed services, or
- subcontract to any organisation other than the agreed organisations.
