Common questions
What federal government tenders does BidShortlist include?
We monitor AusTender and other Commonwealth sources for all Australian Government procurement opportunities. This includes tenders from all federal departments, agencies, and authorities across every sector and industry.
I am based outside ACT. Can I bid on federal tenders?
Yes. Federal tenders are open to suppliers from all Australian states and territories. Many successful federal contractors are based in NSW, Victoria, Queensland, and other states.
How is this different from AusTender email alerts?
AusTender alerts are basic keyword matching and often miss context. BidShortlist uses AI to understand relevance, scores every tender 0-100, and explains why each opportunity matches your business. You get a curated shortlist instead of keyword spam.
Can I filter for specific agencies or departments?
Yes. During setup, you can add keywords for specific agencies like "Defence", "Health", "ATO", or "Finance" alongside your industry keywords to target the exact opportunities you want.
What does the 60+ relevance score mean?
Our AI scores every tender 0-100 based on how well it matches your keywords, industry, and preferences. Only tenders scoring 60 or above make your shortlist. This ensures you only see opportunities genuinely relevant to your business.
How much does it cost?
We offer two plans: Weekly at $29/month (Monday email) or Daily at $39/month (every morning). Both include the same coverage and features. You can try either plan free for 14 days.
