Who can use the EsdHub?


What is the PURPOSE of the EsdHub?

01.
Our ultimate aim is to serve as the Enterprise and Supplier Development and Communication platform for corporate stakeholders (GEs, QSEs and EMEs) in each Municipal District throughout South Africa.
02.
We achieve this by providing an online business opportunity portal with a consolidated database of local suppliers. (Successful deployment and testing were performed in the Saldanha Bay Municipal area -West Coast).
03.
The EsdHub does not replace current procurement/supply chain processes. Participating entities will use the EsdHub in addition to their normal required supply chain management and, in this way, support more localised procurement.
04.
We aim to make it easy for GEs & QSEs to identify, select and support EMEs for their ESD programs and procurement opportunities.
05.
Their active participation will help increase the number and value of local business opportunities available to EMEs - via Tender notifications, RFQs, ESD intervention events & courses, and other business-related opportunities.

Enterprise development assists people in living; it helps them out of poverty; and it leads to long-term economic growth for themselves, their families and their communities.
