What it takes to bid with a municipality

General guidance for municipality buyers, not specific to uMhlathuze Local Municipality — always check the individual tender's own requirements too.

What you need to qualify

  • Registration on the Central Supplier Database (CSD)
  • The municipality's own supplier database or e-procurement portal, where it runs one separately from the CSD
  • A current B-BBEE affidavit (most bidders are EMEs or QSEs)
  • A SARS tax compliance PIN
  • A COIDA Letter of Good Standing for any contract that puts staff on site
Bidder's tip. District and local municipalities buy in small, frequent packages: RFQs under R1 million, plant hire, cleaning rounds and supplies. Register once and check the municipality's own portal weekly — many advertise there first.
