TSBE launches Exchange portal for instant access to tender information

Toowoomba and Surat Basin Enterprise is launching an innovative new exchange portal to give members real-time access to major project updates, tender opportunities and industry insights.

The TSBE Exchange portal is a desktop or phone application that is already hosting a range of industry scopes for major projects.

Looking to find your business match? Our members are waiting online to hear from you.

TSBE Supply Chain general manager Reagan Parle said the app had already been tested, with a soft launch signing up about 50 businesses.

“This has already proved successful, with 12 scopes of work worth about $20 million, currently available to action on the portal, ranging from gas and mining companies to construction companies.”

“A key feature is the ability for member-to-member transactions, promoting supplier and buyer opportunities and actioning the requests directly to the buyer.”

Mr Parle said he expected to have the majority of TSBE’s membership of more than 500 on the platform in the coming year.

“The exchange is a great tool for business to see exactly what is transacting in the market and where the opportunities are,” Mr Parle said.

“As well as the business-to-business feature, there is a range of tools to boost the connections of members in the market.”

“This will streamline some processes and we see the Exchange as an easy to use tool for members in real time.”

The tool was created through a joint partnership with Toowoomba based IT developer EconomX. Boosting local content is a key outcome of the project.

TSBE is constantly looking for ways to make closer connections between our members and Supply Chain opportunities.
