About this event

Please note: this event is run by the Small Business Development Corporation for small business owners in Western Australia only.

If you want a fair go at winning larger tenders then this workshop is your first step. 

When pitching for tenders with larger companies, being unprepared, lacking knowledge of how to apply or not having the right plans and policies in place can mean losing out on valuable contracts. 

Many tender applications, particularly for contracts with larger companies, will seek evidence of a range of safety-related documents, such as safety management plans, risk assessments, and occupational safety and health policies and procedures. 

After this session, you'll be able to immediately apply what you have learned to your business. 

This topic covers:

  • Safety-related documentation commonly required for tender applications; 
  • Essentials of how to develop a safety-management system tailored to meet the needs of your business; 
  • An overview of the legislation framework for WHS in Western Australia. 

This session is for people:

  • Who are preparing to grow their business by pitching for larger tenders; 
  • Any business owners who are interested in gaining more knowledge and clarification around developing safety plans required for tender processes. 

The facilitator for this topic, Blow Your Own Mind, encourages, supports and motivates business owners to re-harness their power, understand their innate ability to succeed and overcome any obstacles. So that your business reaches its full potential they look at the person behind the business to help you understand your motivations and to encourage self-belief. They specialise in practical learning experiences using the latest technology to help businesses and communities thrive.

This session is presented by the SBDC, the only agency in the Western Australian Government dedicated to helping small business. In fact, we've been providing practical support to small business owners for more than 30 years.
