ICT Tenders: New-year rush

Johannesburg, 21 Jan 2020

There is much to consider in this week's National Tender Bulletin as public sector procurement offices enter 2020 at full speed.

The edition's length is due to several organisations advertising multiple requirements. This is led by the KwaZulu-Natal Tourism Authority with four requests; Robben Island Museum with three requests; and then the State Information Technology Agency, Financial and Accounting Services SETA and Mine Health and Safety Council with two apiece.

The spread of interest sees all sectors receiving requests in the double digits, led strongly by software. The services and hardware sector follow with only one advertisement difference.
