Method and source
Source: AusTender contract notices via the Department of Finance's Open Contracting Data Standard API, licensed CC BY 3.0 AU. AusTender material is subject to change — verify any notice at the official source.
Grouped by the buyer name recorded on each notice. Personnel and ICT services notices only, published since 1 Nov 2023; amendments excluded so a variation is not counted as a new award. A buyer may report the same engagement across several notices.
Live roles come from the firms' own career sites and LinkedIn, never from Seek. An ad is shown here when it was matched to one of this agency's tenders and the advertising firm holds a contract with the agency — so the link is between a firm and a client, not between a role and a contract. Matches the matcher rated low-confidence are excluded.
