For buyers and procurement teams

Publish a tender. Reach suppliers who actually qualify.

List a private tender, an RFQ or an expression of interest and it reaches suppliers whose registration and documents already meet what you set. Bekom is building that supplier base now and is not yet publishing private notices. Tell us what you procure and we will tell you honestly when your categories are covered.

Listing a tender

Four steps, and the process runs itself.

  1. 01

    Describe what you need

    Scope, categories, delivery footprint, closing date, and a briefing if there is one. Attach your documents.

  2. 02

    Set who may respond

    The registration, gradings, accreditations and documents a supplier must hold to be eligible at all.

  3. 03

    Publish

    Your notice reaches suppliers on Bekom who already meet what you set, rather than everyone with a matching keyword.

  4. 04

    Run it in one place

    Questions, addenda, responses and decisions on one record, each timestamped, so the process holds up to being asked about later.

Why publish here

Fewer responses, and all of them eligible.

Eligible responses only

Suppliers who do not meet what you set never see the notice, so you are not the one filtering them out afterwards.

Fewer questions, later

Documents and briefing details sit on the notice, so the same five questions do not arrive by email fifteen times.

A defensible trail

Who saw the notice, who asked what, what was answered and when. Exportable.

Built to reach past the usual names

Bekom is built for the suppliers who qualify but have never bid, because it tells them when something fits. Reach depends on how many of them have joined, and we will tell you that number honestly before you pay.

Worth saying

Eligibility is set by you, not by us.

Bekom does not decide who is good enough to respond to your notice. You state the registration, gradings, accreditations and documents a supplier must hold, and the notice reaches those who meet them. We publish your criteria, we do not editorialise about them, and we never charge a supplier for the privilege of being shown to you.

Pricing for buyers

A few minutes to set up, and from R500 a month. If the answer is that nothing on the board fits you right now, that is worth knowing too.
