Children’s Health Queensland advises that this tender has been withdrawn.

Queensland Health has issued a statewide directive requiring all open tenders to align with the Queensland Procurement Policy 2026 and utilise the updated Invitation to Offer templates. Any tender that references previous policy settings or older templates must be withdrawn and reissued in the revised format.

As this tender was issued under the previous policy settings CHQ is required to withdraw the current release and update all associated documentation. The tender will be reissued as a new listing once the revised material has been finalised.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, particularly for suppliers who have already prepared or submitted a response. Your interest in this opportunity is appreciated.

Suppliers are encouraged to monitor VendorPanel for the release of the updated tender.
