Welcome to the State Supply Commission’s website.

The State Supply Commission (Commission) is a statutory body established in 1991 under the State Supply Commission Act 1991 to co-ordinate and oversee the purchase of goods and services across the Western Australian Government.

The Commission has the broad policy role for Government procurement.  Its role encompasses that of policy maker, regulator, and umpire in public sector purchasing, and involves promoting best practice through policies and guidelines. 

The Commission does not undertake the day to day operational role of purchasing. This role has been devolved to all public authorities.

The Commission's Customer Service Charter outlines our missions and goals.
