Emergency Services Procurement
We invite you to attend the Emergency Services & Disaster Management Procurement Conference to be held on the 15th & 16th
March 2016, at the Randwick Racecourse, Sydney. The Conference aims to assist you to deliver real savings through innovative
procurement and supply practices and strategies. The Emergency Services & Disaster Management Procurement Conference
2016 explores challenges and opportunities in purchasing goods and services, supply and logistics for natural disasters, man-
made disasters and pandemics. The Conference will help finance, procurement, operations and emergency professionals from
State and Federal Government Department and agencies including Police, Fire, Ambulance, Maritime, Coast Guard, Search &
Rescue and Defence Services as well as Local Government and NGOs.
Australasia is experiencing increasingly more severe and more frequent natural disasters from bushfires, floods, earthquakes and
severe storms. These events cause great financial hardship for the community and destruction of infrastructure and pressure on
essential services. It is important that our Emergency Sector is able to meet these challenges in ways that promote community
resilience, while being cost effective for the community as a whole. There is an increased focus on transparency, accountability
and effectiveness of spending, to ensure funds are not wasted or not mismanaged.
How is your organisation overcoming the following challenges that
commonly impact on procurement?
•	 Fragmented approach
•	 Reactive and transactional approaches
•	 Limited resources and funds
•	 Unique purchases
•	 Time urgent and expedient time frames
•	 Limited capability
•	 Poor contract management
The Emergency Services & Disaster Management Procurement Conference will cover the resources and capabilities required for
dealing with all aspects of emergencies, with a particular focus on preparedness, response, and recovery in order to lessen the
impact of disasters. You will learn about the strategies and practical insights for best practice in procurement in the complex and
challenging operating environment of emergency services, enforcement and defence.
The Emergency Services & Disaster Management Procurement Conference speakers will not only analyse, dissect and share the
latest trends, with insights from a variety of case studies, but will also provide you with real practical tools and techniques to
assist you to do a better job.
If you are involved in procurement for Emergency Services, Defence and Police sector then you cannot afford to miss this event.  
I look forward to seeing you in Sydney,

How is your organisation overcoming the following challenges that commonly impact on procurement? • Fragmented approach • Reactive and transactional approaches • Limited resources and funds • Unique purchases • Time urgent and expedient time frames • Limited capability • Poor contract management The Emergency Services & Disaster Management Procurement Conference will cover the resources and capabilities required for dealing with all aspects of emergencies, with a particular focus on preparedness, response, and recovery in order to lessen the impact of disasters. You will learn about the strategies and practical insights for best practice in procurement in the complex and challenging operating environment of emergency services, enforcement and defence. The Emergency Services & Disaster Management Procurement Conference speakers will not only analyse, dissect and share the latest trends, with insights from a variety of case studies, but will also provide you with real practical tools and techniques to assist you to do a better job.
