Is Tender Bulletins a government website?
No. We’re a private tender information service run by Domain Emporium (Pty) Ltd. We don’t issue tenders — we collect and publish tenders from government departments, municipalities, state-owned companies, universities and private companies. Always confirm details with the issuer.
Do I have to pay to view tenders?
No. State tenders are free to view, and tender documents are free to download once you’ve registered a free account. A subscription adds email alerts, private sector RFQs and access to business profiles.
What’s included in the 7-day free trial?
Email alerts for your chosen categories and keywords (up to 200 notifications). No payment details are needed — the trial simply expires after 7 days. Private sector RFQ details need a paid plan, and it’s one trial per person or company.
How do I choose which tenders I get by email?
In My Account, pick up to 5 tender categories and 10 keywords. New tenders that match are emailed to up to two addresses as soon as they’re loaded.
Why do some issuers charge for tender documents?
Some departments and state-owned companies charge a fee for their bid documents. That fee is set by the issuer, so contact them directly for payment details and the latest information.
How often are new tenders added?
Tenders and RFQs are loaded throughout the day as issuers publish them. The Latest tenders list on this page always shows the newest open ones, and with a subscription we email the tenders that match your categories and keywords as soon as they’re loaded.
How do I find tenders in my province or city?
Use the Tenders by province section on this page, or open a province to see its popular cities. You can also search for a town or municipality name and add a category such as construction or security.
What is an RFQ and how is it different from a tender?
An RFQ (request for quotation) is used for smaller or simpler purchases: you send a price quote against a specification, usually with a short closing time. Tenders are formal bids for larger contracts and often come with detailed requirements such as CIDB grading or compliance documents.
