Details

The City of Boroondara (the City) is located in the inner eastern suburbs of Melbourne, between 5 and 10 kilometres east of the Melbourne CBD. It is recognised as one of Victoria’s most significant heritage municipalities, containing an extensive and diverse collection of heritage places that reflect the enduring cultural heritage of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people as the Traditional Owners and its colonial and multicultural history.

Boroondara’s heritage is shaped by the enduring traditions and places of Aboriginal cultural heritage significance, natural heritage, the rich legacy of 19th century settlement and development, and the ongoing contributions of successive generations of diverse communities.

Boroondara City Council (Council) invites submissions from suitably qualified and experienced heritage consultants for appointment to its Heritage Consultancy Services Panel.

The Panel will comprise approximately six (6) Consultants who may be invited to submit quotations for heritage consultancy services during the term of the Contract.

The Panel will provide Council with timely access to specialist heritage expertise in support of its strategic heritage work program and broader heritage objectives.

Appointment to the Panel does not guarantee a minimum volume of work. Consultants will be engaged on a project-by-project basis, with appointments determined according to the specific requirements of each project, including the consultant’s expertise, capacity, availability, and any other relevant considerations.

Consultants appointed to the Panel may be engaged to deliver a range of strategic heritage services, largely associated with the implementation of Council’s Heritage Strategy 2025-2041 and associated Action Plans, including but not limited to undertaking heritage assessments and preparing citation reports (including those associated with Boroondara’s Community Heritage Nomination Process), preparing and presenting expert evidence for Planning Panels, reviewing and advising on heritage policy matters and other heritage advisory services as required.

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this financial & professional services opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
