Supply Chain Management (SCM) Solutions

Procurement that is compliant, strategic — and ready for the next chapter of procurement reform.

Public Sector & Delivery Excellence

Overview

Procurement is where public value is won or lost — and where compliance risk concentrates. With the Constitutional Court having declared the Public Procurement Act (Act 28 of 2024) invalid in September 2026, the established framework — the PFMA, MFMA, the Preferential Procurement Regulations (2022) and National Treasury instruction notes — remains fully in force while Parliament reconsiders the reform. Institutions must keep today's procurement compliant while building the capabilities the next version of the law will inevitably demand. We combine deep knowledge of the South African regulatory environment with practical procurement capability — from compliance health checks to contract close-out.
