Implementation of Prescripts
• As required by the Treasury Regulation
16A4 the department has a Supply Chain
Management (SCM) unit within the office
of the Chief Financial Officer.

servicing the National Department and
therefore is charged for implementing the
SCM system in the National Department.

The SCM unit is responsible for:
– Procurement
– Logistics
– Transport services
•
As part of procurement the unit manages
the supplier database.

Supplier Database
•
•
•
Database is managed on a stand alone
system called iqual.
This software is used also by other
departments
The database is updated quarterly through
an invitation to service providers which is
published on the government Tender
bulletin.

Supplier Database
•
•
•
Service providers collect the prescribed forms
at the department’s offices, complete them and
submit them to the department.
The department after perusing the forms
captures the supplier details on the system.
The system rotates requests for quotations
(RFQ) between suppliers and prints RFQ in
respect of each supplier.
8
Supplier Database
• This database is used in respect of all
transactions below R500 000.00.
• When procuring from service providers the
department checks with National Treasury
to ensure that a service provider is not
black listed.
