Research and development Tenders

Browse current and past Research and development tenders published by South African government departments, municipalities, state-owned entities and private companies looking to procure research and development.

Tenders in this category ask suppliers to quote on research and development - anything from once-off supply contracts to multi-year service agreements, depending on the issuing organisation's needs. Requirements, BEE and compliance criteria differ per tender, so review each listing individually.

From the data on this page, organisations such as Mine Health and Safety Council, Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) and City of Cape Town issue these tenders most often; and Gauteng, Pretoria and Johannesburg are where most of this work is based.

Every entry links through to the original tender notice, including the closing date, tender number and any attached specification documents, so you can check eligibility and submission requirements before you apply.

To find out more about a specific listing, open the tender and review the attached documentation, then contact the persons named in the document to submit your research and development tender.
