The department of public works & infrastructure requires professional mechanical engineering services for the repair and refurbishment of botshabelo magistrate's office in the free state, procured by quotation from service providers on its professional service supplier register. The appointed firm must be an ecsa-registered mechanical engineering business, or a multidisciplinary practice with a mechanical division, under the full-time supervision of a registered professional mechanical engineer or engineering technologist. Pricing is submitted on an activity schedule for value-based or time-based fees, and the award is decided on price and preference points after a risk assessment. The most consequential consideration is that the bidder must prove current ecsa registration of every registered principal and submit a complete set of returnable documents by the hard-copy closing at 11:00 on 19 november 2026, because missing registration or documentation makes the quotation unacceptable.

The national museum in bloemfontein requires an electronic identity verification service that checks south african identity numbers and associated identity details against department of home affairs records through an authorised data source, with functionality comparable to windeed home affairs ID verification. The service must be delivered through a secure online platform, portal or system integration, return a clear match, unsuccessful or inconclusive outcome, and keep an auditable record of every check in line with popia. An estimated 800 verifications are quoted for evaluation purposes only: NO minimum volume is guaranteed and the museum pays only for checks actually requested and performed at the quoted rate.
