Request for information: cloud-based ERP system implementation for sanas

This RFI aims to gather market intelligence on cloud-based ERP solutions for SANAS, a Section 3A Public Entity under the PFMA. SANAS is the sole National Accreditation Body for South Africa, operating under the Accreditation for Conformity Assessment, Calibration and Good Laboratory Practice Act, 2006, and ISO/IEC 17011. Current challenges include limited system integration, fragmented data, manual processes, and reporting constraints. The RFI is non-binding and seeks to inform a future RFP. Objectives: integrate core business processes, improve data accuracy, reduce manual processes, enhance reporting, strengthen compliance, assess cost-effective solutions, and understand vendor capabilities. SANAS requires a scalable, modular, cloud-based ERP for ~86 employees, meeting public sector governance standards.

This RFI is for information-gathering only and does not constitute a binding procurement process. SANAS reserves the right not to proceed with an RFP or procurement after this RFI. Participation does not create contractual obligations. All submitted information will be treated confidentially under applicable legislation. Bidders must disclose any limitations or constraints in their solution.

The ERP solution must integrate core business processes across SANAS. Key goals: improve data accuracy, consistency, and integrity; reduce reliance on manual/fragmented processes; enhance management reporting and decision-making; strengthen compliance, governance, and audit readiness; and assess cost-effective, scalable deployment models for a medium-sized public entity. Vendors should also outline their implementation approaches and support models.

Bidders must submit: company profile; summary of relevant project experience; at least two reference sites; conceptual description of their solution; presentation and demonstration materials; use case solutions deployed; typical implementation methodology; timelines; and indicative cost. Evaluation will consider vendor experience, capability, ease of implementation, and integration.

Solution expectations: cloud-based (SaaS or hosted model); modular and scalable for SANAS’s size; secure and POPIA-compliant; capable of generating management, EXCO, and Board-level reports; configurable rather than heavily customised.
