The Coordinated Imagery Program will assist the buyer with all procurement requirements. This includes procurement preparation, invite offers and contract management.
Step 1: Start the service request
Email the Coordinated Imagery Program.
Step 2: Develop the service request
The Coordinated Imagery Program will work with buyers to develop a service request. This will detail the products and/or services required and specifications, including:
- extent

- shortlisting of suppliers, and
- best and final offers
Step 3: Evaluate offers
The Coordinated Imagery Program will manage the evaluation process in line with VGPB policies and in conjunction with the buyer. The buyer will be supplied with a Tender Evaluation and Recommendation report for approval to engage with the recommended supplier.
The Coordinated Imagery Program will then:
- negotiate and enter into a contract with the supplier
- manage contract performance and;
- receipt delivery of products.
Step 4: Delivery
The Coordinated Imagery Program will perform quality assurance on the products before delivery to the buyer.
Final products will be delivered to the buyer via Amazon Web Services Simple Storage Solution (AWS S3).
