CapeNature’s Supply Chain Management (SCM) unit is responsible for purchasing goods and services to help us achieve our mandate.

The SCM unit is committed to ensuring that CapeNature follows a secure, transparent and accountable supply chain process, while promoting broad-based black economic empowerment, local economic development and small businesses.

We ensure that goods and services are procured at the best value for money, that processes are fair and equitable, that there is open and effective competition, and that sound accountability and reporting is practised.

The Supply Chain Management unit is guided by the following legislation:

• The Public Finance Management Act (Act No. 1 of 1999), as amended
• The Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act (PPPFA) 
  • The Preferential Procurement Regulations of 2017
• The Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) Act

If you would like to do business with CapeNature, you will need to register on the Central Supplier Database (CSD). The process is explained here.

• Company registration with the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC)

Following registration on the CSD, potential service providers must also register on the Western Cape Supplier Evidence Bank. CapeNature maintains a dual registration process that requires its suppliers to register on both the CSD and the Western Cape Supplier Evidence Bank (provincial database) for procurement via the eProcurement System (ePS), also known as the Integrated Procurement Solution (IPS).
