About What is an RFQ?
Compare the item schedule, delivery terms and requested compliance documents.
Common mistake: Do not assume a short quotation invitation has no mandatory conditions.
The publishing organisation's latest notice, documents and amendments govern the opportunity. Requirements vary; this information is a starting point, not legal advice or a guarantee of eligibility.
Match tenders to your business
Create a free business profile and use AI Match to see which tenders look relevant, and why. Set an in-app alert for this page and we will flag newly published notices in your dashboard and alerts page. No email is sent.
Frequently asked questions
Which document should I rely on?
Always use the publishing organisation's current invitation and official amendments. This glossary explains terms; it does not change tender conditions.
Source and independence
Tender notices are published by National Treasury through the eTenders portal and by the individual buying institutions, which remain the authoritative sources. Tender Express is an independent search platform. It is not an official government service and is not affiliated with National Treasury. Always confirm details and download documents from the original source.
