Restricted work

Not every manufacturing enquiry can enter a tender.

Every lawful category may be submitted for manual fit review, but submission is not acceptance. Regulated, controlled, unsafe and high-risk work requires evidence and may be declined.

Effective for the public pilot from 31 August 2026. Country, insurance and legal requirements are assessed case by case before any restricted work is circulated.

Prohibited in the opening service

FactoryTender will not knowingly facilitate illegal goods or services; weapons, ammunition or explosives; tobacco or vaping products; counterfeit or infringing products; unlawful controlled substances; sanctions evasion; deceptive health or safety claims; or work intended to bypass a licence, regulator, export control or product-safety duty.

Manual compliance review required

Pharmaceuticals, biologics, medical devices, veterinary products, alcohol, dangerous goods, batteries, industrial chemicals, defence or aerospace items, critical infrastructure components, export-controlled technology and products making therapeutic or disease claims require classification and evidence review before any manufacturer is contacted.

Information required

A review may require product classification, intended claims and markets, licences, responsible-person details, ingredient or material status, safety data, export-control classification, required standards and the identity of the party taking regulatory responsibility. Do not send restricted technical data until a lawful access method is confirmed.

No acceptance by silence

Receiving, acknowledging or discussing an enquiry does not mean FactoryTender has accepted the work, confirmed legality or identified a suitable manufacturer. FactoryTender may pause, narrow or decline any matter where authority, safety, insurance, confidentiality or capability is uncertain.

Ask before sending sensitive material

Send a non-confidential summary to info@factorytender.com or use the contact route. FactoryTender will identify the next information step if the enquiry can be reviewed.
