Subcontractor’s checklist v7 9 February 2012

Background: approved provider panel.
The irrigation and stock and domestic infrastructure of the Trangie-Nevertire Irrigation Scheme (TNIS) is owned by Trangie Nevertire
Cooperative Limited (TNCL). The scheme commenced operation in late 1971.
TNIS covers an area of some 17 000 ha of irrigation-purpose land and provides valuable stock and domestic water to a large number of farms
owned by members of the scheme. In 2009 an application was made by TNCL to the Federal Government to modernise the scheme
infrastructure, which was approved in 2010. TNCL has received funding to manage the modernisation of the channel system, decommissioning
of irrigation infrastructure on farms in the red zone, upgrading the irrigation efficiency of farms in the green zone and developing a modern stock
and domestic scheme.
This document outlines the requirements that an applicant must meet in order to be approved as an “Approved Subcontractor” by TNCL and
placed on an approved provider panel.
Please note that the information to be provided in the attached Subcontractor’s Checklist is required by the Federal Government, as part of the
TNCL funding agreement, and as such is not negotiable.
A subcontractor must at all times meet the requirements specified in the Subcontractor’s Checklist and provide their services to the satisfaction
of TNCL, in order to maintain approval as an “Approved Subcontractor”. Where all requirements are met the applicant will be eligible for
appointment to an approved provider panel for the period of the project.
Applicants are required to comply with the following process for approval and appointment to the approved provider panel:
Subcontractor’s checklist v7 9 February 2012

1. To be appointed to an approved subcontractor’s panel applicants must provide the required information in each of the 14 criteria, as
outlined in the following document.
2. Entry to the approved subcontractor’s panel will be open for the life of the project (December 2012)
3. Applicants must complete and sign the proceeding documentation and deliver two hard copies to Proponent Coordinator Mark Gardner,
Vanguard Business Services
4. Documentation will be passed to the approvals subcommittee of the TNCL for evaluation
5. All applicants will be notified in writing within 21 days of making an application of the outcome of the evaluation process
6. Applicants that satisfy the requirements will be approved and placed on an approved provider panel list which will be published on
TNCL’s website (www.tnis.org.au).
7. Subcontractors may be removed from the list if they subsequently fail to meet the mandatory requirements.
Please note that being an approved provider is no guarantee of work.
It will allow farm proponents to contact those approved Subcontractors for quotes, knowing that the Subcontractor has satisfied the mandatory
requirements stipulated by the Federal Government.
Appointment to undertake work will need to be negotiated with each individual proponent through the Farm Workplan process, and is a
relationship between proponent landholders and the sub-contractor.
Any questions should be directed to Mark Gardner, Vanguard Business Services (contacts on cover page).
