Find

Find the tenders worth your time

Every open tender from the federal, state and council portals TenderScout monitors, in one feed, ranked against your business.

  • Every portal in one feed

    Every plan

    AusTender, VendorPanel, the state portals and councils, brought together and kept to open tenders.

    Each open tender is scored against your business profile, with a Strong match or Worth a look band beside the score.

    One search box (⌘K) across tenders and your own work, with Ask Scout in the same place.

  • Add a tender from anywhere

Go/No-go

Know if anything stops you bidding

Before you read the whole RFT, Scout checks it for the things you would need to hold already.

  • Go/No-go verdict

    Every plan

    Scout finds the hard blockers (prequalifications, licences, certifications, clearances) and checks each against your profile: Go, No-go, or Your call when it can’t be sure.

    Runs as part of an analysis.

  • Unknown, never guessed

    Every plan

    Anything your profile doesn’t answer is marked unknown. Things you can arrange after award, like insurance, never count as blockers.

  • Override with a reason

    Every plan

    The decision is always yours: override the verdict and record why.
