Built for businesses that tender.

Tendra assesses tender opportunities from Australian businesses across a range of sectors. Whether we can help depends on the tender itself — its requirements, your evidence, the deadline and the scope you need.

    • Declarations
02Two kinds of tender

Government and commercial tenders differ.

Government procurement

  • Published through formal procurement portals and panels
  • Structured response schedules, forms and declarations
  • Mandatory criteria, often assessed for compliance first
  • Strict closing times and lodgement rules

Commercial and private-sector

  • Issued directly by companies, head contractors or property owners
  • Formats vary, from detailed RFTs to short capability requests
  • Commercial fit and relationships often weigh heavily
  • Timeframes can be short and requirements less defined

We can assess both. Neither is automatically suitable — each opportunity is reviewed individually before any scope or fees are proposed.

03Requirements to evidence

Different sectors. The same discipline.

Whatever the industry, each requirement is matched to evidence your business can actually support. Anything missing is flagged.
