Where we are listed

Registrations.

Three live registrations, and we are working through the NSW schemes as their application windows open. We are not on a government panel yet, and we would rather tell you than have you find out.

AusTender

Registered supplier with keyword alerts running across Approaches to Market and Planned Procurements, for video, livestream, photography, media production and media training.

VendorPanel Marketplace

Active on the Graphical, Photographic and Art list under video production, editing and photographic services. Listed for all of NSW and the ACT, plus Brisbane and Melbourne, so NSW councils buying through VendorPanel can reach us directly.

TenderLink

Registered with an alert profile covering advertising and media, audio and video, event management, marketing and photography.

Before you go to tender

You may not need one.

A Commonwealth entity can directly engage a small or medium enterprise for up to $500,000 including GST under the procurement rules. Most NSW agencies have their own threshold for work at this size. A lot of the government video we deliver is bought that way, because a single shoot rarely justifies a full approach to market.

Tell us which pathway your agency uses and we will format the quote to suit it, itemised and fixed, ready to drop into your system.

Straight answer

We have not held a Commonwealth contract.

You can check that on AusTender in about thirty seconds, so there is no sense in us talking around it. Our government record is at state level.

What that record means in practice: we have worked to purchase order procurement, met accessibility requirements, cleared approval chains with a minister’s office at the end of them, livestreamed government events to public channels with live captioning, and delivered to broadcast specification with classification paperwork. That is the same work, bought under a different set of rules.

If a Commonwealth track record is a hard requirement for what you are running, we would rather you knew now. If it is not, the record above is the one to read.

Ask and it is with you

What we can send you today.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

Do we have to run a tender to engage you?

Often not. A Commonwealth entity can directly engage a small or medium enterprise for up to $500,000 including GST under the procurement rules, and most NSW agencies have their own direct engagement threshold for work at this size. If you tell us the pathway your agency uses, we will format the quote to suit it.

Are you on a government panel?

Not yet. We are registered on AusTender, active on VendorPanel Marketplace and registered on TenderLink, and we are working through the NSW schemes as their application windows open. Most of the government work we have delivered was bought directly rather than through a panel.

Have you held a Commonwealth contract?

No, and you can check that on AusTender in about thirty seconds, so we would rather say it. Our government record is at state level: eight NSW bodies since 2018, including six continuous years with an office of the Premier’s Department. The purchase orders, the accessibility requirements, the approval chains and the ministerial sensitivity are the same work.

What insurance do you carry?

$20,000,000 public liability through Aon, plus workers compensation and signed subcontractor agreements for every crew member. We can send the certificate the same day, named to your venue if the venue asks for it.

Can you meet our accessibility standard?

Yes. Captions and transcripts are quoted in from the start rather than charged on top, and audio description and Auslan can be arranged where a piece calls for it. Tell us the standard your agency works to and we will meet it. There is more detail on our government video page.

Can your crew work on secure or restricted sites?

Yes. We film for Thales at sites around Australia, including a naval base, under site access protocols and escort. Crew details, identification and inductions are handled before the shoot rather than on the morning.

Who owns the footage?

You do. Once the job is paid, the final files are yours outright, delivered as clean archivable masters with the captions and transcripts.

How quickly can you quote?

Usually within a day of the brief. The quote comes back fixed and itemised, so it can go into your procurement system as it is, with no back and forth to work out what a line covers.

Got something coming up?

Let’s make the day easy.

Tell us what you need. We will scope it, quote it, and look after the rest. No hard sell, just a quick chat.
