Why suppliers use BidShortlist for federal bids

Knows your business

Every response is grounded in your real projects and capabilities — reused across every bid, unlike a blank chatbot.

Won't get you disqualified

Most SME bids are thrown out for non-compliance, not bad writing. We flag unaddressed criteria, over-limit answers and missing mandatory items.

We break the tender into every selection criterion and draft a targeted, evidence-backed response to each — within the word limit.

Common questions

How does BidShortlist help with federal tenders?

You upload the AusTender opportunity. BidShortlist extracts every selection criterion, mandatory requirement and word limit, then drafts evidence-backed responses grounded in your business experience. You edit, compliance-check, and export to Word.

Can I use it from any state?

Yes. Federal tenders are open to suppliers in every state and territory, and BidShortlist works the same wherever you are.

Will it fabricate experience?

No. Responses use only the evidence you provide. If a criterion needs evidence you haven't supplied, it tells you what's missing rather than inventing it.

How much does it cost?

First bid free, then $149 per bid (Pay As You Go) or $199/month for up to 15 bids (Professional). A bid writer typically charges $1,500–$15,000 per submission.
