Western Australian State Government tenders
All WA State Government departments and agencies are required to advertise tenders above a specific threshold on the Tenders WA web portal. Businesses can register on this site to receive notifications of tenders that match their industry or services.
Details about tendering for agency contracts are available on the Department of Finance’s Government procurement website.
The Department of Finance provides a guide to supplying to the government, including procurement policies, tendering processes, and tips for submitting a response. Free seminars for metropolitan businesses are also offered to help get started.
Aboriginal businesses are encouraged to register with Supply Nation’s Indigenous Business Direct and the Aboriginal Business Directory Western Australia. These directories enable government and private organizations to engage directly with registered businesses.
