How organs of state buy printing
Brochures, reports, forms, signage and branded items are bought by request for quotation or tender, with specifications for paper, size, colours, quantities and delivery. The Government Printing Works prints the Government Gazette and security documents, so those rarely go out to tender. Notices may ask for a proof before the print run.
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.
