Typical contract size

The median contract value is $757,389, across 434 contracts awarded between 18 July 2024 and 7 October 2026. Half of this agency’s contracts are smaller than that figure.

Why there is no total here. AusTender restates a contract’s value on every amendment, and a small number of published values are wrong by orders of magnitude. Counts, dates and methods are unaffected, so that is what this page reports.
