The IT sector experiences a bit of a dip in interest in this week's National Tender Bulletin. This follows months of above-average activity relative to other sectors providing to government.
It is the telecommunications sector that receives notable interest this week, despite not dominating the issue. The State IT Agency (SITA) provides the first of four tenders targeting the sector with a call for approval to create a bidder accreditation panel for SAPS's GSM and LTE router solution to be used in remote sites and mobile vehicles for a period of three years.
This is followed by the South African National Roads Agency which is looking for a telecommunication service provider to design, support and maintain a self owned national wide area network. South African Local Government Association, meanwhile, is advertising for the supply of Internet, telecommunications, e-mail, backup and hosting/cloud service solutions. SITA also provides the final telecoms opportunity with a request for information for its NGN Core Layer-2 transmission network.
The Gauteng Department of Co-operative Governance and Traditional Affairs is also offering tenders of interest. In the first, the province calls for data billing audits in six of Gauteng's municipalities. The second sees the department looking for a service provider to conduct a work study investigation and business process mapping to assess the current situation at Provincial Disaster Management Centre.
Elsewhere in the bulletin, the services sector leads with software interest on its heels. The hardware sector, however, only has one opportunity to respond to.
The heightened interest in software permeates the issue, followed by a number of interesting opportunities for the services sector. The hardware sector falls behind this week but still attracts a healthy selection of requests.
In another notable request, the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (ICASA) is looking for a service provider to assist it with the development of implementation plans for projects that date back as far as 2013 and 2014.
The edition closes with a busy results section, featuring 7 cancellations and 5 awards.
