• Make sure that you read and digest all documentation thoroughly and make note of

provide all requested information

Health Purchasing Victoria | Working with Victoria’s health sector to achieve best-value supply chain outcomes47
Tips for Responding
• If you have a slow internet connection and the size of the response is in
excess of 10mb, your session could time out while trying to upload the
response
• Try to submit your response on the day before closing, this will give you time to
address any issues that might be stopping your submission from uploading,
e.g. Unanswered mandatory questions or file sizes larger than 10mb. Don’t
leave it till the last minute to submit your response – leave plenty of time.
• Resubmit as many times as you like, only the latest version will be visible to
HPV. Note: multiples users can work on the submission. However, when
submitting, only one user should be logged on to ensure the latest data
is submitted.
• Use the secure messaging to communicate with the HPV and seek
clarifications
