Bids are submitted online through the city's e-tender portal by 24 november 2026 at 10:00 and are evaluated on the 80/20 preference point system, with award as a whole to one bidder on total price.

What is AI-powered tender matching?
AI-powered tender matching uses machine learning to analyze your company profile—including industry codes, B-BBEE level, provinces of operation, and capabilities—to automatically find and recommend South African tenders that match your business. This saves hours of manual searching and helps you discover opportunities you might otherwise miss.
How does the AI matching work?
Our AI analyzes your company profile, including industry codes, B-BBEE level, provinces of operation, and past performance. It then matches you with tenders that align with your capabilities and increases your likelihood of success. The system learns from your application history to improve recommendations over time.
What types of tenders are available on Tenders SA?
We aggregate tenders from national, provincial, and municipal government departments, state-owned enterprises (like Eskom, Transnet, and SANRAL), and public entities across all sectors including construction, IT, consulting, supplies, services, and more.

Do I need CSD registration to apply for government tenders?
Yes, registration on the Central Supplier Database (CSD) is mandatory for all suppliers wanting to do business with the South African government. Tenders SA helps you understand CSD requirements and guides you through the registration process with step-by-step tutorials.
