Does it cover Commonwealth contract notices as well as open tenders?

Yes. Awarded contract records sit alongside the current approaches to market, including the buying agency and the supplier. For most bid teams the award history is the more useful half, because it tells you whether bidding is worth the effort.

Can I ask about a specific agency's buying history?

Yes, that is one of the most common uses. You ask what an agency has bought in a category and from whom, and the answer is assembled from the published records rather than from a report someone wrote months ago.

Does it include state and territory tenders too?

Coverage is portal-agnostic, so state and territory sources can sit alongside AusTender. If a portal is public we can stand it up quickly. Tell us which jurisdictions matter to you and we will confirm what is already in place.

How does it connect to our AI tools?

Through MCP, so it works with Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot or any other MCP client. There is no separate application and no dashboard to roll out to your team.

AusTender, without leaving your AI assistant

Open opportunities, past awards and who won them, answered in plain English.

Talk to sales

AusTender is comprehensive and reasonably well behaved, which is exactly why the work it creates is invisible. The ATM list tells you what is open now. The contract notices tell you what was awarded, to whom, and for how much. They are separate views, so building a picture of a buyer means holding one screen in your head while reading the other, then doing it again next week when something changes.

Procurement Context puts both sets of records behind your AI assistant. You ask which agencies have bought a service before and who supplied it, or what has opened in your categories since Friday, and the answer comes from the published notices and contract records. There is nothing new to log into, because the only interface is MCP and it connects to the assistant your team already uses.

The questions that decide a bid are rarely the ones the portal is built to answer. Whether an agency has a habit of extending rather than going back to market. Which suppliers hold the standing offers you would be competing under. How a requirement has been scoped in previous rounds. Those are judgement calls, and they improve when the underlying record is easy to interrogate.

Use cases

Who is buying, and what is next

What an agency has bought, from whom, at what value, and on what cycle. Contracts coming up for renewal are the pipeline nobody has published yet.

Who you are up against

The suppliers who keep winning in a category, with their award history and estimated win rate. Know the incumbent before you commit a team to the response.

What the work goes for

Awarded contract records with values and dates. Price against evidence of what this buyer has paid before, not against a guess.

What is live right now

Open opportunities across every covered portal, filtered by the criteria your team actually qualifies on.
