In November 2024, the Department of Finance released a Procurement Policy Note regarding the engagement of PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) Australia.
This Procurement Policy Note provides a short extension to the mutual agreement between Finance and PwC Australia that PwC Australia will not bid for any new Commonwealth work until 15 July 2025.
Under this agreement, Commonwealth officials should not be entering into any contracts with PwC Australia for any approaches to market which close before 15 July 2025. As per the previous note, this agreement does not cover the ongoing licencing or sale of PwC proprietary products (software) and existing contracts.
At the conclusion of the agreement period, Finance will provide an update to entities on the status of the cessation.
