Tender Watch: KZN gets cooking.

This week's National Tender Bulletin sees government cautiously inching back to the business of public service under the reins of new President Cyril Ramaphosa. The ICT sector may be forgiven for not noticing the bulletin's slimness as interest in technology appears to override the cautious sentiment. The coast looks set to become the new popular destination for the ICT sector as KwaZulu-Natal delivers a spurt of tender opportunities, making up a third of the technology offerings.

Every business initiative within DTPC is supported by the ICTG to access, integrate, and deliver data across various business divisions. Given that data is everywhere - in multiple disparate systems and in many different formats - accessing and transforming data into meaningful information has become complex.

DTPC invites proposals from suitably qualified and experienced bidders to develop an enterprise data management (integration) strategy, as well as implement Biz Talk Enterprise Data Integration solution that supports the strategy. The solution should enable the DTPC to track and document the source of data, how it has changed, and who has changed it to meet audit requirements.

Note: It is a condition of tender that 40% of the contract must be sub-contracted to an EME/QSE company that is owned by black people who are youth. All proposals will be evaluated in various stages - compliance and functionality will be assessed and thereafter all responsive proposals will be evaluated in accordance with the PPPFA regulations, 2017 using the 80/20 preference point system where 80 points will be reserved for price only and 20 points reserved for preference points as per the B-BBEE verification certificates.
