Frequently asked questions
Where can I find legal services tenders in South Africa?+
Public legal services tenders are advertised on National Treasury's eTenders portal and on provincial, municipal and SOE sites. Bidcheck reads them into one live feed, with 25 open right now, most of them in Gauteng, and emails you new ones every morning. Searching is free.
What do I need to qualify for legal services tenders?+
Usually: Admission as attorneys and a valid Fidelity Fund Certificate from the Legal Practice Council; Professional indemnity cover; Proof of relevant matters handled (references) and named practitioners' experience; Registration on the CSD and a B-BBEE certificate or affidavit. Each tender's own requirements can be stricter, so check the tender data and returnable schedule before pricing.
How do I win more legal services tenders?+
Panel appointments are scored mostly on functionality. Structured case studies with outcomes beat long firm profiles. Beyond that, keep your CSD profile, tax PIN and B-BBEE affidavit current, attend every compulsory briefing, and bid on tenders the buyer can actually pay for. Bidcheck scores each tender against your profile and flags buyers with a poor payment record.
