Written for procurement officers and contract managers. Everything you need to assess, register and engage FBTM is on this page. Copy the supplier block straight into your system.
FBTM is wholly owned and operated by Joshua Tognolini, a Yorta Yorta man. Not a joint venture, not a minority holding, not a licensing arrangement, not a front. One person owns it, runs it and does the work.
Engaging FBTM is not a concession on quality in order to meet a target. It is the same trade work you would buy anyway, from a supplier that also counts toward your obligations.
“At 100% ownership, FBTM clears every current and incoming eligibility threshold outright.”
No transitional arrangement requiredCurrent as at August 2026. Verify against the source before relying on it in a submission, because these settings change.
Annual value target of 3% for 2025-26, rising 0.25% each year to 4% by 2029-30. The Mandatory Set Aside requires contracts valued between $80,000 and $200,000, and contracts delivered in remote areas, to be offered to Indigenous business first.

The threshold moved from 50% to 51% Indigenous owned or controlled. FBTM sits at 100% ownership and 100% control, so it clears the new definition outright with no transitional arrangement and no restructure required.

The Social Procurement Framework was refreshed in June 2025, alongside the Local Jobs First Amendment Act 2025. A Victorian Aboriginal business is one at least 50% Aboriginal owned and verified by Kinaway or Supply Nation.

The Mandatory Set Aside band of $80,000 to $200,000 is exactly the size of work this business does well. A single machine refinish, a component batch, a chassis programme across a small fleet. Not a $5 million framework we would have to subcontract out and pretend otherwise.
If your requirement is larger than we can genuinely resource, we will say so and tell you what portion we can take. That is more useful to you than a supplier who says yes and then fails delivery.

Ask for the certificates and safety documentation you need. They are provided on request, usually same day.
Send the specification, or use the quote form. If we cannot meet a requirement we will tell you before you commit.
Tell us your PO and invoicing process and we will follow it. No chasing, no surprises on payment terms.
Ask for the documentation before you commit. We would rather be assessed properly than win on a claim we cannot back.
