Welcome to the Government Procurement Portal.
e-Tender
The e-Tender publication portal is an online publication platform that enables central access to bid opportunities and their
results. Through the portal, bid documents are made available to bidders free of charge, on a single platform that is searchable
and accessible 365 days a year.
e-Procurement
Procurement planning is the process of deciding what to buy, when and from whom. During the procurement planning process,
the procurement method is assigned and the expectations for fulfilment of procurement requirements are determined.
Buy-Site
The buy-site is a centralised online government transversal contracts catalogue of pre-negotiated fixed prices. The transversal
contracts are for a specific term and can be accessed by all government users. The catalogue is an automated procurement
process which enables users from all spheres of government to procure goods and services without direct liaison with
suppliers.
e-Auctions
Unlike traditional auctions, the participants of a reverse auction place lower and lower bids, until the lowest bidder wins. They
are widely used to reduce costs and source services or products at the lowest possible price from participating suppliers.
Reverse auctions have both pros and cons for suppliers and for buyers.
In order to simplify and centralise procurement activities, SITA in conjunction with the National Treasury and National Department of Health
developed this portal for suppliers and practitioners.
