The Surf Coast Shire Council invites tender from suitably qualified electrical contractors for the provision of electrical maintenance services on an as required basis. Details of the contract and the scope of services are set out in the tender documentation. All Tender enquiries are be submitted via the Online Forum. Only queries regarding confidential issues are to be made directly to the Contact Person: Taiana Sonneman on (03) 5261 0600 or tsonneman@surfcoast.vic.gov.au Tenders are to be lodged no later than 2:00 PM on Wednesday, 8 July 2026. Tenders must be completely uploaded into the electronic tender box by the closing time. Tenderers will receive a Successful Submission Receipt timed and dated upon completion. Tenders not complying with the requirements - for example, tenders submitted by facsimile or email, will not be accepted. It is the Tenderer's responsibility to ensure that correct lodgement occurs. Submissions not conforming to these conditions may not be accepted, in the absolute discretion of Council. Late or incorrectly lodged tenders will not be considered.
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.
