At today’s SMME Engagement in Mpumalanga, Siphamandla Mbhele presented key insights into SITA transversal and panel contracts.

The session highlighted the current participation levels of accredited SMMEs within Mpumalanga and demonstrated that representation across several transversal contracts remains limited, creating substantial opportunities for growth and increased local participation.

Discussions focused on:
- Expanding accreditation and representation of Mpumalanga SMMEs
- Leveraging automated SCM processes for improved procurement access
- Addressing participation gaps in transversal contracts
- Understanding common bidding pitfalls affecting SMME success
- Building stronger local manufacturing and innovation ecosystems

The presentation also unpacked common mistakes made during bidding processes, particularly administrative non-compliance and technical/functionality failures. Delegates were advised on the importance of complete compliance documentation, valid OEM authorisations, accurate technical submissions and verifiable track record evidence when responding to bids.

SMMEs were further encouraged to participate in training opportunities offered and to access accredited transversal suppliers through "sita.co.za" for potential collaboration and partnership engagements.

Delegates actively engaged on issues relating to a transversal contract that has been on hold since 2023 and called for greater localisation, open innovation and inclusive procurement practices that prioritise local economic development.

The room was filled with anticipation, curiosity and ambition as Mpumalanga SMMEs gathered for today’s SMME Supplier Engagement Session - eager to explore opportunities, gain insight and position themselves within South Africa’s evolving digital economy. Setting the tone for the day, Kgosi Marogoa unpacked how SITA is using supplier development, localisation and innovation to unlock meaningful participation for Black-owned SMMEs in the ICT sector.

His presentation highlighted how SITA is:
- Integrating supplier development into procurement processes
- Expanding opportunities for regional SMMEs
- Driving localisation and industrialisation
- Creating pathways from enterprise development to black industrialists
- Supporting innovation, incubation and commercialisation of ICT solutions

SMMEs were also introduced to targeted procurement categories including professional services, ICT security, software, hardware support, e-waste management, data lines and end-user computing, sectors where SITA is actively seeking greater SMME participation.

Importantly, the session reinforced SITA’s commitment to:
- Ringfencing opportunities for Black SMMEs
- Encouraging joint ventures and partnerships
- Enabling access to markets and innovation platforms
- Supporting skills development and business sustainability

Mpumalanga SMMEs responded enthusiastically to the engagement, reflecting the growing appetite among local businesses to participate meaningfully in South Africa’s digital economy.

SITA looks forward to continued collaboration with SMMEs across the province as part of building an inclusive, innovative and transformed ICT ecosystem.
