What regulatory approvals are needed to supply medical equipment to government?

Medical devices must be registered with SAHPRA (South African Health Products Regulatory Authority). Pharmaceutical suppliers need a licensed wholesale distribution authorisation. Suppliers must also be on the Department of Health's approved vendor database for their category.

How does the National Health Tender work?

The National Department of Health and provincial departments issue centralised tenders for medical supplies through the National Treasury procurement system. Winning a national tender can result in contracts with multiple provincial health departments simultaneously.
