Follow the steps below to access the tender documents from the ICN Gateway.
Australian Tenders is a tender notification service. We provide descriptions of the tenders and a link to where you can source the tender documents.
Government and private tenders are sometimes published on e-Procurement portals like ICN Gateway. The tender documents are usually free to download, although occasionally the Buyer (not the portal provider) may charge a download fee.
Step 1: Go to Source
Once you have opened the tender in the Australian Tenders platform
- Click on Go to Source
The next screen confirms that you are leaving the Australian Tenders website to access the tender documents located by the Issuer. This screen also offers guidance on how to register on some of the most common platforms that Issuers use for storing their documents.
We understand that seeing this screen every time you click on Go To Source could be frustrating. So, once you have read the information on this page, you can choose to never see this screen again by ticking the Do not show this message again box
- To proceed to the Issuer's documents, click on Continue to Source
Step 2: Review the work packages & scope
Normally, you can download the scope document for each work package without being registered or logged in. However, this can change depending on the issuer's settings when they added the work packages.
- Click on Work Packages
Step 3: Register
So you have decided that you are interested in creating an EOI, or you have been directed to the login page to download the documents.
- If you don't already have a login and ID for ICN, click on Join Now to create your profile
You will be taken to the Subscription Packages page. The Limited plan allows you to download documents and submit EOI's free of charge.
- Select the Limited package
- Follow the prompts provided by ICN to set up your profile
Step 4: Downloading the documents or submitting an EOI
After completing all steps, it’s unlikely that you will return to the specific project you started from. If the project is open in another window, you can resume the document download or submit your EOI. Alternatively, from the tender on the Australian Tenders webpage, click on the Go to Source link to open the specific project.
- Click on the Work Packages tab
- Expand the work package by clicking on the down arrow
- Download docs – Click on Download, or,
