Source: AusTender OCDS award releases (Commonwealth/federal only), public.awarded_contracts; category names are the standard UNSPSC 2-digit segment titles mapped from each contract's unspsc_code — the source data's unspsc_title field is not populated, deduplicated by one release per OCID — the highest-value release, ties broken by release_id (the deployed public.awarded_contracts view rule), retrieved 5 September 2026.
How this work was bought originally
Procurement method of the expiring contracts
Limited tender
68 · 80%
Open tender
17 · 20%
A limited tender means the work was awarded without an open approach to market. Where that share is high, the incumbent’s renewal is the more likely outcome — which is exactly when an early conversation with the agency matters most.
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.
