Which Australian procurement sources does Lucius cover?

AusTender (Federal) is the primary feed, pulled directly from the OCDS API. State portals (NSW eTendering, VicTenders, QTenders, etc.) are on the roadmap. For state tenders today, upload the PDF directly and the analysis works the same as for AusTender notices.

Does Lucius understand Australian defence procurement?

Yes. Defence Department and CASG (Capability Acquisition & Sustainment Group) tenders are the largest single category on AusTender. Lucius extracts requirements from defence solicitation documents — schedule of requirements, statement of work, security clearance prerequisites — and maps them to your capability matrix.

Can subcontractors and primes both use Lucius?

Yes. Lucius is used by both ends of the defence and infrastructure prime/sub chain — primes use it to break down their solicitations into structured working drafts, subcontractors use it to find the prime opportunities they can plug into and to draft compliance-aligned responses.

Built for Australian public procurement

AI tender finder for Australia

Why Australian suppliers use Lucius

✓

Defence-procurement-aware

CASG, DSC frameworks, Defence Industrial Capability — Lucius surfaces clearance prerequisites, ITAR / Defence Trade Controls flags, and Australian Industry Capability (AIC) plan requirements.

✓

State + territory narrowing

Filter to NSW, VIC, QLD, WA, SA, TAS, ACT, or NT — useful for state-funded infrastructure where geography matters more than ANZSIC.

✓

Sub-prime opportunity surfacing

Primes win the headline contract; subs win the workshare. Lucius surfaces both — and helps subs craft responses that align with prime capability gaps.

✓

Compliance matrix from defence-grade RFTs

Schedule of requirements, technical evaluation criteria, mandatory items vs scored, weighting by section — extracted automatically from CASG and other Federal templates.

Strongest fit for:

• Defence primes (BAE, Thales, Lockheed AU)

• Defence subs and sovereign-capability SMEs

• Aerospace + maritime engineering firms

• Major-infrastructure consortia (rail, water)

• IT consultancies on Federal panels

• Professional services for state governments
