Who buys here

How organs of state buy other goods

Goods outside the other categories, such as uniforms, protective clothing, tools and building materials, are bought by request for quotation for small orders and by tender for term contracts with fixed unit prices. Notices list items, quantities and the SANS standards that apply, and may ask for samples before the award.

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.
