We are a team of bid and tender writers led by Jason Cooney, Director. We are committed to helping businesses across Australia win government and private sector contracts, tenders and bids. Our bid and tender writing consultants:

• Have over 108 years combined experience.
• Bring both in-house and consulting experience.
• Are experienced in writing across 28 industries.
• Understand the unique demands and strategies required to win federal, state and local (council) government bids.
• Love helping small and medium businesses win contracts.
• Seamlessly beef up corporate and large scale bid teams to reinforce their tendering capability.
• Are available around the clock via phone or email.

We are ethical, honest and straight-forward to deal with. We like to communicate a lot. Therefore, you may get some overcommunication from us – which could be a bit annoying – but that’s about as bad as we get! We don’t charge you for communication so there’s no issue.

We are all humble. We push back when we know something it not right – and always do so respectfully and with your best interests at heart! To put it simply – we want you to win the bid. We are humble and we know that humility is useful when dealing with busy internal stakeholders.

Our writers include Paula, Corey, Deidre and Jeffrey. Our average length of tenue for employees is six years – something we are proud of. The performance metrics we place on ourselves are built around your success. I.e. we have bonuses put in place for all our writers which are payable if the tenders we work on for our clients are successful. We are a competitive bunch of writers that love to help you win.

We would also like to describe ourselves as friendly, helpful and approachable. We think that helps especially for repeat clients (and new clients of course). Once we have worked on a bid for you, we get to know your team and your material. We get to know your business.

That means that should you have any queries regarding the tender or strategy, you will feel free to raise the concern and bring them up. It also means that any future tenders we work on with you are seamless

Servicing clients across Australia and internationally in 2026 and beyond

We are located in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth with a number of contract writers who we work with on larger bids based in Brisbane. However, we have consultants in and around Australia and New Zealand. We are seasoned at working remotely and are available around the clock. Our consultants will attend your offices where required and when required. We’re ready to assist, flexible in our approach and dedicated to winning more business for your business.

We service regional and rural areas across Australia as well and have a strong track record helping regional businesses win government contracts.

We do believe in a good mix of working remote and from an office. I.e. we are not a completely remote firm. Our offices are located in Sydney and you will generally find Jason and our core team are at our offices every day. We have also expanded to assist some of our larger client globally. We are proud to be part of the Tsaks Consulting group.

We take pride in delivering on what we promise, are a personable and approachable consultancy that believes in delivering tangible results.

Case Studies – Our Successes

International Law Firm

Incumbent insurance client
Retained and expanded services into two additional practice areas. We drafted in-depth case studies, as well as new profiles for two key partners in the additional practice areas. This was a highly complex tender across multiple lines of insurance and national coverage. The key to this tender response was project management and detail. We excelled in both.

National Cleaning Company

Property developer – speculative
Successful – appointed to three new sites. We worked with a cleaning company to launch a pre-emptive bid in order to demonstrate initiative and intent to the client. The property developer was not expecting the pre-emptive bid, which was designed in such a way that they did not need to go out to tender. This was successful – our client was appointed to three new sites and is now the developer’s exclusive cleaning company.

International Architecture Firm

Chinese State-Owned Corporation

Conduct and drafting of a research report into urban planning in a major Chinese province. Our consultant joined the client’s team in China to lead the project. We worked closely with local Chinese government officials to understand their needs. We then coordinated a research project with our team in Australia, delivering the Chinese officials valuable insights into the Australian system.

Fire Maintenance Company

High net-worth property owner
Successful proposal to undertake fire maintenance work on an annual basis. We assisted with case studies, corporate profiling and deriving alternative fee strategies. Our team put together an innovative and quality proposal that focused on value-added services. This differentiated our client from other fire maintenance companies
