APCC (Australasian Procurement and Construction Council Inc.)

Established in 1967, the Australasian Procurement and Construction Council (APCC) was created by government for government. APCC is the peak council whose members are responsible for procurement, construction, and asset management policy for Australian State and Territory governments, the Australian Government, and the New Zealand Government.

Over the past 57 years, the APCC has established itself as a leader in government procurement, construction and asset management strategies and practice. The work of the APCC is committed to procurement innovation, solutions, and efficiencies, designed to create savings, and maximise service delivery to the communities of Australia and New Zealand.

We achieve this by promoting a cohesive government procurement environment and managing national projects that deliver local benefit. Together, we harness the benefits of nationally consistent approaches through leveraging the extensive knowledge and expertise of members to generate innovative solutions that add value to what and how they buy, build, and manage their assets.

APCC enables members to come together, collaborate, and lead the broader public sector procurement and relevant industries while delivering quality engagement and resources.

We enhance the proficiency and stature of the profession by continually developing and applying knowledge and professional competence.
