Professional services by kind of work

Contracts active in 2026-27 that AusTender files under “management and business professionals”, sorted by an AI model reading each contract’s description. AI-classified estimate: annualised

Communications and marketing 1$146k 82.1%
Property and facilities 1$18k 9.9%

  1. More than twice the entity’s largest yearly total expenses in the Budget papers ($9.7m). It may have been entered in dollars instead of thousands.
