ONE SYSTEM, THREE WAYS IN
Whichever seat you're in, it all lands in the same place.
Fabricators
Subcontractors
Suppliers
TenderLog
Bids. Jobs. Orders. One follow-up system.
THE PROBLEM
You're not losing jobs. You're losing track of them.
A tender can sit open for months. A job gets awarded and buried in a group chat. An order goes out and nobody follows up until the client rings chasing it. None of that is a skill problem — it's a tracking problem, and it's quietly costing you work you already priced.
Weeks
between something going out and getting a real answer back.
Dozens
of open bids, jobs, or orders can be in flight across the team at once.
Zero
follow-ups left to memory — every date is calculated and flagged automatically.
1
missed follow-up is revenue quietly walking out the door.
INSIDE TENDERLOG
Seven workspaces. One follow-up system.
From the moment a job is priced to the day it's awarded — every step, every builder, every deadline lives here.
01 Dashboard
Open TenderLog and see, in seconds, exactly what needs attention today — total value currently in progress, value won this year, how many tenders are active, and how many are waiting on a follow-up call right now.
- "Pending follow-up" queue — every open bid past its next follow-up date, worst-overdue first
- Deadlines in the next 7 days, so nothing is submitted late
- Active tenders by estimator, charted, to balance workload across the team
- Recently added jobs, and a one-click year filter to scope the whole app to this year or all time
02 Jobs
The table where every bid actually gets created and edited — sortable, one row per builder on a job, with quick status cards across the top (Pricing, Submitted, Awarded, 2nd Pricing, Won, Lost) that double as one-click filters. Click any row to open the full job page: a stage stepper, a documentation link straight to the job's network folder, an internal task checklist, and a running activity log of every note and stage change.

03 Pipeline
A drag-and-drop kanban board with every job laid out across the real bidding stages — Pricing, Submitted, Awarded, 2nd Pricing, Won, Lost. Drag a card to move it a stage (it's logged in that job's activity history automatically); click a card to jump straight to its full detail page. Export the filtered view as a CSV any time.

04 Calendar
A month grid showing every bid deadline and every upcoming follow-up at once. TenderLog computes each job's next follow-up date automatically from its interval (1 week up to 4 months) and flags it "due," then "URGENT" past a configurable threshold — so a bid can't quietly age past the point where a revised quote still matters. Click any day to see exactly which jobs land on it.

05 Builders
A mini-CRM, built automatically from your real bidding history — no separate data entry. Every builder gets a profile: total tenders quoted, real win-rate percentage, total and won dollar value, contact details, and free-form notes your team can read before the next call.

06 Feedback
Closes the loop after a bid is decided. Every builder you've asked for feedback shows up here, split into two columns: still awaiting a reply, or already replied — with a sentiment tag, a reason category, and the actual words the builder used, not just a stage change. Scattered replies turn into a structured record you can spot patterns in over time, instead of a memory of "didn't we lose that one on price before too?"

07 Reports
A self-serve report builder. Filter by any combination of estimator, stage, month, or builder, group the result by whichever of those you want to compare, choose count or total quoted value, and get a live bar or pie chart plus the exact matching-jobs table underneath — exportable, and never touches your underlying data.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is TenderLog?+
TenderLog is the one place to log every tender, bid, job or order, follow it up automatically and keep the full history — instead of losing track in a spreadsheet.
Who is it built for?+
Fabricators, subcontractors and suppliers. Each version is set up for the way that type of business actually works, all inside the same system.
How much does it cost?+
$49.99 AUD per week, per company, with unlimited users and every feature included. There is no setup fee and no lock-in contract — cancel any time from Settings.
Can I bring in my existing spreadsheet?+
Yes. Import your jobs from Excel, match your columns to TenderLog's fields, check the preview and import. Nothing gets lost in the switch.
How do follow-up reminders work?+
Set a follow-up interval on a job and TenderLog calculates the next follow-up date for you, flags it when it is due or overdue, and emails automatic reminders so nothing is left to memory.
Can my whole team use it?+
Yes. Invite your team and give each person the right access — Admin, Editor, Director or Viewer. Everyone sees the same always-current information.
Is my data safe?+
Each company's data is kept separate from every other company's, and every person signs in with their own account and the access level you give them.
How do I get started?+
Create your account and start logging jobs the same day, or book a demo and we will walk you through it and help set your team up.
