What is a tender?

A tender is an offer to do work or supply goods at a fixed price. Getting goods or services is also known as "procurement". Tenders and bids are the same thing. When government "puts out a tender" or "invites bids", this means government asks the public for price offers to supply goods or provide a service.

Consultant Register System (CRS)

The CRS, which was launched in 2021, was developed to serve as an electronic roster to ensure that companies operating in the Built Environment and Infrastructure Sector are appointed on a rotational basis within the Department of Infrastructure.

The Department’s Education, General and Health Infrastructure Chief Directorates  use the system for appointments on new projects planned during the financial year.
