Supply Chain Management (SCM) Department

What we do

Our department manages the supply and acquisition of various goods and services to or on behalf of the City. These include tenders for construction works, general and professional services, the disposal of goods no longer needed, and the selection of contractors to assist in the provision of municipal services.

We also strive to ensure that the City’s supply chain is sound, sustainable and accountable. We promote Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) and local economic development, and encourage the formation of small businesses and joint venture partnerships.

In line with the Constitution and Municipal Supply Chain Regulations, our procurement system aims to be fair, equitable, transparent, competitive and cost effective. We also manage the City’s inventory system as well as co-ordinate Demand Management and Support Services.
