Engaging a supplier under active ACCC proceedings may breach whole-of-government procurement policy and expose the agency to reputational risk
📋
Modern slavery non-compliance
Entities above the $100M threshold required to report under the Modern Slavery Act 2018 — non-compliance is a supplier risk signal

What Gumshoe checks for government procurement

Live

AusTender Contract History

Commonwealth contract and grant data from AusTender. Verifies a supplier's claimed government experience, identifies contract patterns, and surfaces any performance concerns visible in the public record.

Live

Autonomous Sanctions Register

DFAT autonomous sanctions register — entities, vessels, and individuals subject to Australian sanctions. A mandatory check before any procurement or grant payment. No exemptions.

Live

Modern Slavery Act Compliance

Modern Slavery Register check for entities above the $100M reporting threshold. Verifies whether a statement has been lodged — and whether the entity is in scope. Relevant for procurement policy conditions.

Live

WGEA Gender Equity Reporting

Workplace Gender Equality Agency employer reporting status. Relevant for Commonwealth agencies applying WGEA compliance conditions in tender evaluation criteria.

Live

ACCC Enforcement History

ACCC court proceedings, undertakings, and penalty notices. Competition and consumer law breaches by a potential government supplier carry reputational and accountability risks for the purchasing agency.

Live

ABN, Insolvency & ASIC Status

ABN currency, GST registration, ASIC company status, and insolvency proceedings. An entity in administration cannot legally fulfil a government contract — verify before awarding.

Who uses this

Procurement officers

Evaluating tender responses or approaching suppliers directly. Run sanctions, ACCC, and ABN checks as part of your standard vendor due diligence before recommending contract award.

Contract managers

Performing annual supplier reviews against an approved panel. Batch-check AusTender history, insolvency, and compliance reporting to flag any material changes since panel establishment.

Grant administrators

Processing grant applications or acquittals. Verify ABN status, charity registration, modern slavery compliance, and that no sanctions apply before funds are released.

Finance & accounts payable

Processing invoices from government suppliers. A sanctions check at payment is a final line of defence — and takes ten seconds on Gumshoe.

Whole-of-government procurement compliance
The Commonwealth Procurement Rules require agencies to conduct appropriate due diligence on suppliers. Gumshoe gives procurement teams a structured, auditable check against the registers that matter — with a PDF export for your contract file.
