What you'll find on VUZA
VUZA pulls open tenders from the official eTenders portal and from roughly 90 separate municipal, metro, SOE and national-department sources, then puts them in one place you can search on your phone. Eskom posts on its own site, the City of Cape Town on another, a small Karoo municipality on a third. We check them daily and bring the open ones here. Browse them by sector, buyer or what's closing soon.
Everything is free and there is no account. The big alert services charge R850 a month or more and make you sign up before you can see anything. We don't. You search, you read a plain-language summary of what the tender wants, and if it fits you go straight to the source documents. One quirk worth knowing: the rand values are estimates, not the official budget, so treat them as a rough size guide rather than a number to quote.
Never bid before? Start with the free guides. They cover registering on the Central Supplier Database, getting CIDB graded, and what a B-BBEE affidavit actually does, in plain language.
