2nd edition Government Model Contracts now available
The second edition Government Model Contracts have been launched and are now available for download.
The second edition Government Model Contracts (GMCs) were launched by MED in October 2011, replacing the first edition GMCs which were launched in July 2010.
The GMCs are aimed at low-value, low-risk common goods and services. They have been designed as the default government contract. It is up to each agency using the GMCs to determine what constitutes low-value, low-risk common goods and services. This definition is subjective and will depend on the size of the agency and the scale and complexity of its procurement function.
You can read more about the second edition GMCs and download user guides on our GMC home page.
