Security contractors in Gauteng are entering 2026 under heightened scrutiny: every cloud or hosting service that stores, processes or transmits any state data must now prove full data-sovereignty, localisation and residency compliance before a security guarding or electronic security tender can even reach adjudication. National Treasury’s Instruction 2025-11 (effective 1 April 2026) makes SITA’s Cloud Framework Agreement 2.0 mandatory for national and provincial departments, while the Information Regulator’s 2025 enforcement guidance treats non-compliant hosting as an automatic POPIA breach. For security firms, the risk is immediate—if the CCTV archive, access-control database or guarding-management platform is not demonstrably hosted inside South Africa with verified local data custodians, your bid is rejected at box-tick.
Gauteng’s 2026 infrastructure pipeline exceeds R65 billion, yet 42% of General-category bids fail at compliance screening. With National Treasury’s April 2026 Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act (PPPFA) amendments now in force, every supplier engaged in provincial construction, maintenance, and facilities-management work must recalibrate their documentation matrix. Misinterpreting the revised 80/20 and 90/10 preference point thresholds, or submitting outdated BBBEE affidavits, triggers automatic disqualification—costing contractors both tender costs and opportunity value in the country’s most competitive procurement marketplace.
