How to complete the GRDC Tender form
Below is some important information to assist with completing and submitting Tender forms:
1. Download the Tender form on this page.
2. Open the form in MS Word.
3. Read the on-form instructions when completing the form. Instructions to help you complete each field can be viewed in the status bar at the bottom of the screen and by pressing the F1 key. Mac users should be able to view instructions via the ‘help’ key, or by using the ‘command’ key and the ‘?’ key simultaneously. All users are strongly recommended to download the accompanying form instructions.
4. The format of the forms cannot be altered and data can only be entered in specified (shaded) fields. Note that free text area is provided at the end of the Tender form to provide free form responses against the selection criteria and/or additional information.
5. Press the Tab key to move between fields.
6. Most data fields have character limits to restrict the overall length of the document.
7. Do not include images within the form. Supporting information is welcome as an attachment to the form, please ensure this is also attached to the hard copy.
8. Do not submit any form to the GRDC until all relevant data fields have been completed to the satisfaction of the supervisor, any collaborators named in proposal, and the research agency/agencies.
Ensure the Certification details are complete before any form is submitted. Ensure that your agency’s research administration is aware of, and has approved, the content of any form prior to submission.
9. When complete, attach the form to an email and send to tenders@grdc.com.au (one form per email only). When a Tender form is submitted, please name the word file using the project supervisor’s surname, a numerical descriptor to differentiate multiple proposals (e.g. Smith1.doc, Smith2.doc).
The hard copies of tenders are to be double enveloped with the inner envelope clearly marked “Open Tender” or “Multi-stage Tender” and the Tender number.
