Management Options Pty Ltd is an Australian-owned, Brisbane-based, procurement consultancy. Our services cover all aspects of the procurement-contract management cycle encompassing accurate identification of needs, data collection and spend analysis, risk and market analysis, sourcing/tendering and eventual close out of a supplier contract.
We apply contemporary thinking and business acumen to achieve our client’s business objectives, through outcomes-focused procurement with integrity.
Management Options is also one of Australia’s leading providers of independent probity services. Probity serves as a foundational component to ensure the procurement process and commercial transactions can withstand public scrutiny. The provision of independent oversight to these processes mitigates probity concerns and protects our clients from financial, legal and reputational risks.
At Management Options we understand the spotlight placed on public sector procurement processes to meet legislation and policy requirements and constraints and the public scrutiny that comes from that. Our probity advisory services bring an appropriate mix of practical and formal risk management to ensure probity is effectively managed to enable the achievement of the client’s business objectives.
Our approach is risk-based and outcomes-focused while maximising client benefits and minimising the time it takes to complete the process.
At Management Options , our clients are our priority. We know how to engage stakeholders and maintain project momentum to deliver tangible, quality outcomes for them. Typically, our client’s procurement requirements fall into one of our service streams depending on where they are in the Procurement – Contract Management Cycle.
Our experienced procurement specialists support our clients through all stages of the cycle. Alternatively, we’re able to work with our client’s team, or other consultants to complete work packages or handover activities for the next stage.
With procurement, it’s all about using our expertise to find the very best solution for your organisation. We’re well equipped to handle every aspect of the full procurement lifecycle and will tailor a package to suit your needs.

Our values underpin our approach to business and serve as the foundation of our company. From the staff we employ and the services we offer, right through to how we do business, Management Options stands proudly behind the values our company was founded on.
Clients are integral to our business and their needs and success are at the forefront of our approach. We firmly endorse the fostering of long-term relationships with integrity, honour and respect.

It is essential that all of our consultants working within procuring entities, display personal and professional integrity. All staff involved in the procurement process at all times, must be honest, trustworthy, responsible and reliable. They must endeavour to keep to the purpose of the procurement process in mind in accordance with the due diligence required.
Our process examines the objectivity, fairness and impartiality of the procurement process by considering key documents, review points, decisions and communications. All offers must be considered based on their compliance with the stipulations of invitation documents and offers should not be rejected for reasons other than those specifically stated in the procurement rules. A contract should only be signed with a supplier, contractor or service provider whose offer is compliant and best responds to the objectives in terms of fitness for purpose (functional and technical capability, track record) and price.
Value For Money (VFM) is at the heart of our procurement process. It represents the achievement of the desired procurement outcome at the best possible price (not necessarily the lowest price), based on a balanced judgement of financial and non-financial factors relevant to the 
procurement. Management Options supports the concept that better outcomes can be achieved when resources are used more efficiently and are procured in a more competitive market. VFM takes into account the total cost of procurement from planning to use and disposal and everything in between.
Management Options prides itself on offering a flexible procurement model that represents the best interest of our clients. Through working across various businesses, we’re able to leverage a collective genius to provide authentic solutions for our client projects. We aren’t concerned with pushing specific products or working to an agenda, we simply want to find the best possible solution in accordance with effective time and financial management.
High-quality procurement and probity services should be transparent, defensible and auditable while supporting the pursuit of value for money. Our process examines decisions and documentation to ensure transparency and compliance, thereby upholding accountability and supporting the best interests of our clients. At the same time, we proactively manage perceived, potential and actual conflicts of interests through stakeholder briefings and early identification of risks.
Our probity and procurement practitioners take a hands-on and proactive approach to finding tailor-made solutions for our clients. We believe in being agile and applying common-sense solutions to challenges. We roll up our sleeves and rapidly deploy people, processes and platforms to ensure you meet your timelines and governance requirements.
There are valid and legal reasons for keeping certain information confidential. For example, proprietary information belonging to companies or individuals participating in the procurement process, is entitled to confidence. However, information on the public procurement process must be made available, but only at the right time, to all public procurement stakeholders; contractors, suppliers, service providers and the public at large unless there are conflicting legalities. Our team will advise on effective arrangements to administer communications and sensitive records.
