The Australian Digital Health Agency sits at the centre of a public health technology market where software, clinical information and national services have to work together. Its notices can draw suppliers from specialist systems firms, service integrators and companies that support public digital infrastructure. That makes the wording, route to market and stated value of each opportunity important to businesses deciding whether a tender fits their capabilities.
KEY NUMBERS
Notice 4500164573 carries an advertised value of AUD 161556495. That is the published value at notice stage, not money confirmed for a supplier: the source identifies it as advertised value, not awarded value. The notice was published on 2026-08-31, while its closing date is not published.
Against the agency’s other notices, the gap is unusually wide. It issued 69 other notices in the period covered, and its median notice value was AUD 368294; the featured notice is 439 times that median. That comparison describes the notice’s position in this buyer’s own purchasing activity, not a final award or a supplier’s revenue.
The values are top-heavy rather than arranged in a gradual step up. The next-largest notice is AUD 157164606, close to the featured value, but the following listed notice is AUD 20808158 and the remaining listed values are lower again. Suppliers should therefore avoid treating the agency’s median notice as a realistic bid-size proxy for this opportunity; the gap does not by itself reveal the scope or procurement route.
| Notice | Published | Value |
|---|---|---|
| 4500164573 | 2026-08-31 | 161,556,495 AUD |
| 4500164268 | 2026-08-21 | 157,164,606 AUD |
| 4500164622 | 2026-09-11 | 20,808,158 AUD |
| 4500162176 | 2026-08-31 | 16,139,541 AUD |
| 4500164265 | 2026-08-07 | 13,921,264 AUD |
| 4500163300 | 2026-06-15 | 9,413,851 AUD |
Framework ceilings are excluded from these figures, so the comparison concerns the published notices rather than every possible purchasing route. That distinction matters when suppliers assess whether a large requirement is being competed as a standalone notice or connected to a wider contracting arrangement. A large advertised value, repeat win or single bid would not by itself establish impropriety, and these facts do not establish an award, a closing date or a supplier outcome.
AUD 161556495 advertised is 439 times the agency’s median notice.
WHY IT MATTERS
The notice shows why suppliers need to separate advertised value from awarded value and compare an opportunity with the buyer’s own notice pattern. A very large notice can require a different assessment of capability, delivery risk and route to market, while the published information does not yet establish the eventual contract outcome.
