Tendering
Suppliers invited to participate in a tender process are required to submit their response via Western Power’s e-procurement system, Ariba.
Submitting a tender response
If you are invited to participate in a sourcing event, a Sourcing Manager will send you an invitation email containing a hyperlink to Ariba.
Once you have logged into Ariba you will be guided through the process of submitting a response. If you require assistance, follow the ‘how to’ information within the system, or contact the Ariba Specialist (ariba.specialist@ westernpower.com.au).
