To win these contracts, bidders will need a deep understanding of a broad range of stakeholder requirements. They’ll be navigating athlete and spectator expectations, diverse local opinions, the Games Independent Infrastructure and Coordination Authority (GIICA) guidelines, and plenty of government red tape.

Frequently asked questions
Q1. What kinds of tenders and contracts are expected ahead of the Olympic and Paralympic Games Brisbane 2032?
We anticipate a wide variety of tenders will be required to support the Olympic and Paralympic Games. From venue construction and infrastructure upgrades to goods and services, maintenance, logistics, security and specialist support services. The pipeline is large and diverse.
Q2. How will I learn about upcoming Olympic and Paralympic Games contract opportunities?
Major 2032 Games tenders will be advertised on the official portals typically used by Games infrastructure, for example, QTenders and Gateway ICN. We monitor those opportunities across all GIICA-managed and related projects and can help you interpret them and prepare competitive submissions.
Q3. Do I need a pre-qualification or supplier profile to bid on Olympic and Paralympic Games tenders?
Many Games-related procurements will require a valid supplier profile or pre-qualification as part of submission. We strongly recommend clients ensure they are registered early. If needed, we can assist you with capability-statements, compliance documentation and supplier registration.
Q4. What does ‘value for money’ mean in the context of Olympic and Paralympic Games tenders?
It’s not just cost. Games proposals are evaluated on a balanced mix of up-front price, whole-of-life costs, quality, functionality, service, sustainability, social value and legacy benefit. Tender responses that demonstrate strong organisational capability, long-term value and social/environmental awareness tend to perform best.
Q5. Are there opportunities for smaller, local or specialist businesses to bid for Olympic Paralympic Games contracts?
Yes. The Games procurement framework emphasises support for local and regional businesses, diverse suppliers (including First Nations enterprises) and inclusive supply chains.
Q6. Can we submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) or just wait for RFT (Request for Tender) when bidding for Olympic and Paralympic Games contracts?
Typically, Games bids will follow a phased procurement model: an initial EOI or ROI (Registration of Interest), followed by RFT from shortlisted suppliers.
Q7. What happens if an Olympic and Paralympic Games tender has a fast turnaround or tight deadline?
Games-related tenders may come with compressed timelines due to the scale and delivery schedule. That’s where experienced bid support helps. We can manage tender writing, compliance checking and submission workflows, allowing you to keep working on delivery without distraction.
Q8. Can we partner with other suppliers or subcontractors on Olympic and Paralympic Games tenders?
Yes – consortia, sub-contracting and collaboration are common, especially for larger packages. We can help with partnership or consortia bids through team coaching and tender writing that focuses on consistency and cohesion.
Q9. What are the common compliance risks or pitfalls we should watch out for when bidding for Olympic and Paralympic Games contracts?
- Missing pre-qualification requirements
- Late or incomplete submissions
- Poorly demonstrated value-for-money criteria (focus only on price)
- Failure to address social value, sustainability or local-business inclusion
- Unclear consortium/sub-contractor arrangements
With our tender services, we help you anticipate and navigate these risks.
Q10. Is there support for improving our tender capability (even if we’re new or small) to improve our chances when bidding on Olympic and Paralympic Games contracts?
Absolutely. We can help from building your capability statement, compliance templates and consortium formations, right through to full bid strategy, documentation and submission. Small and specialist firms often gain major advantage with experienced support.
Q11. How does Aurora Marketing’s tender writing service work?
You can learn more about our tender writing service by visiting our Bid and Tender Support webpage.
