The budget comes first. The notice comes later.

Road reseals, drainage, footpaths, culverts and water mains sit in the budget and the minutes before they reach VendorPanel.

From budget line to the tender.

Returnables from your records.

Tendor drafts the council's Schedule 2 and returnables from your records, and flags anything it can't back up. Your estimators keep the price.

One published example.

Council civil works questions.

How can a civil contractor find council works before they go to tender?

In adopted budgets, capital works programs and council minutes. A budget line can still change.

Where do Australian councils advertise civil tenders?

On VendorPanel, the state's eTendering portal, or the council's own site. The council's notice is the source of truth.

What published values should I check before pricing?

Published contract values for that council and work type. They are context, not an exact market price.

Is Tendor a government tender portal?

No. You still lodge on the council's portal. Tendor is procurement intelligence.
