au_search_contracts
ActiveTool of Australia Tenders
PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for Australian federal government contracts/tenders — "what did the Department of Defence award in May 2026", "AusTender contracts published last month", "recent Australian government procurement over $1M". Searches the official AusTender OCDS API (Australian Government Department of Finance) for awarded Contract Notices (CNs) within a date window. Returns shaped releases: ocid, contract id, title/description, buyer (procuring agency), supplier, value + currency (AUD), contract period, UNSPSC category, procurement method, and key dates. Date range defaults to the last ~30 days if omitted.
