Where can I find electrical tenders in Australia?

What do I need to qualify for electrical tenders?
Usually: A registered electrical contractor with the Department of Employment and Labour, plus a registered person who can issue a Certificate of Compliance (CoC); A Prequalification grading in class EB (electrical building) or EP (electrical infrastructure) at the grade the tender requires; A WorkCover workcover certificate and an OHS Act compliant safety file; Registration on the Australian Business Register (ABN). Each tender's own requirements can be stricter, so check the tender data and returnable schedule before pricing.
How do I win more electrical tenders?
Check whether the tender is EB or EP work. The Prequalification class of works is stated in the tender data, and bidding with the wrong class is an automatic disqualification. Beyond that, keep your ABN profile, tax PIN and business registration extract (ASIC) current, attend every compulsory briefing, and bid on tenders the buyer can actually pay for. TenderWin scores each tender against your profile and flags buyers with a poor payment record.
