Government Panels

SME Gateway is a member of multiple Commonwealth and State Government Panels. These are utilised by a large range of Government Departments and Agencies to improve their capacity and gain access to capability supply.

Each panel membership is the result of a rigorous prequalification process by the owning agency; which includes a detailed assessment of financial stability, capability (in the case of SME Gateway - the collective capability of its member base), and previous experience.

SME Gateway continuously looks for new and additional panel opportunities for its members.
