Strategies for increasing inclusivity and diversity in your supplier pool through digital distribution.

How Government Entities Can Reach More SMMEs

Inclusivity is a core pillar of public sector procurement in South Africa. Reaching small, medium, and micro enterprises (SMMEs) requires active and modern distribution channels.

Key strategies for reaching SMMEs:

  • Mobile-First Distribution: Ensuring tender notices are accessible on mobile devices.
  • Simplified Language: Making requirements easier to understand for emerging businesses.
  • Targeted Alerts: Pushing relevant opportunities directly to SMMEs in specific sectors.

Digital platforms like Tenders SA are essential for bridge the gap between government needs and SMME capabilities.
