Who buys here

How organs of state buy agriculture and environment

Departments, municipalities and agencies buy grass cutting, landscaping, alien vegetation clearing, waste collection and farm inputs. Some waste activities need a licence under the National Environmental Management: Waste Act, and pest and weed control products must be registered under Act 36 of 1947. Contracts are often priced per hectare, load or month.

Organs of state buy under section 217 of the Constitution and either the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), for departments and public entities, or the Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA), for municipalities. The Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act and its 2022 regulations add 80/20 or 90/10 preference points for the specific goals each tender names. Bidders need Central Supplier Database (CSD) registration, a tax compliance status confirmed by SARS and, to claim B-BBEE points, a certificate or sworn affidavit. Missing a compulsory briefing session disqualifies a bid.
