ATN – Asset Storage and Transportation Services for the Sheriff’s Office Victoria 1. Overview of services sought The Sheriff’s Office Victoria (SOV) is responsible for actioning warrants in Victoria and enforcing sanctions against those who do not comply with court orders in accordance with the Sheriff Act 2009. The sanctions available to Sheriff’s officers to enforce civil and criminal warrants includes the seizure and sale of assets (which includes vehicles and chattels). To support this, SOV currently outsources the following services (the Services) under an existing contract: Transport of vehicles and chattels from seizure locations (within both metropolitan and regional Victoria) to the Contractor’s storage facility Receiving vehicles and chattels into the Contractor’s storage facility Long-term storage of vehicles and chattels, as well as personal property found in vehicles Preparation of vehicles and chattels for auctioning Release (i.e. handover) of vehicles and chattels to the person or entity named in a Sheriff’s warrant Provision of documentation and reporting associated with the Services to SOV. With the current contract for the Services approaching the end of its term, SOV is commencing activities to undertake a competitive tender process for the Services to ensure service continuity for SOV. SOV wishes to engage a single supplier with the capacity to deliver the required Services on an end-to-end basis. This must be as a prime contractor delivering all the services directly, or with identified services delivered by subcontractors. 2. Estimated timelines The Request for Tender for the Services is anticipated to be released to the open market on Wednesday 15 July 2026. The future contract will have an initial term of 3 years, with two optional extension periods of up to 2 years each (up to a total of 7 years). 3. Participation requirements All suppliers submitting a tender response MUST obtain a Fair Jobs Code Pre-assessment Certificate and provide evidence of it in their tender response.

A strong tender response is clear, compliant, and backed by evidence. These steps apply to most Australian and New Zealand public tenders.
Open the official listing and download the full tender pack. Note the response schedules, evaluation criteria, mandatory conditions, and the exact closing time and lodgement method.
Check licences, insurances, certifications, and any conformance requirements before you commit. A quick bid or no-bid decision saves days of wasted effort on a tender you cannot win.
Respond to each evaluation criterion directly and back your claims with concrete examples, referees, and past performance. Address the buyer’s stated need, not a generic capability statement.
Submit through the source portal well before the deadline. Late or incorrectly lodged bids are almost always rejected, so leave time for uploads, portal errors, and last-minute questions.
