About

The Department of Defence (Commonwealth of Australia) is seeking suppliers to establish a panel that provides additional and surge-capacity mortuary and bereavement support services. The services may be required in response to incidents involving the death of Australian Defence Force members or other persons and include Disaster Victim Identification (DVI) services, repatriation of human remains, provision of specialised equipment, deployment of incident response teams within Australia and internationally, and bereavement support for individuals, families and groups. A Request for Tender is anticipated to be released on AusTender in early to mid-October 2026, or shortly thereafter.

This could be valuable for organisations experienced in DVI, repatriation and bereavement services with capacity for rapid surge and international deployments. Key considerations include managing sensitive human remains and family support needs, logistical and coordination challenges for domestic and overseas responses, and readiness to deploy specialised equipment and incident response teams as directed by the Commonwealth.
