About How to start tendering
Organise commonly requested business documents, but use each invitation's checklist as the authority. Registration alone does not qualify a business for every procurement opportunity.
Start with manageable scopes. Examine quotation and bid opportunities without assuming an RFQ has simpler compliance requirements.
Create a free profile, describe your business accurately and use matched results as a shortlist to investigate.
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
Does following this guide guarantee an award?
No. The buyer evaluates submissions under its published criteria. A relevant search result is not a confirmation that your business qualifies.
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.
