Government tenders in South Africa: where they are published.
South Africa's eTenders portal, run by the National Treasury, is the official publication point, but provinces, metros and state-owned enterprises publish a large share of procurement on their own platforms. TRINTA maps 21 South African sources across those layers.
The national channels
These are the public, national-level sources: anyone can find them in one search. They carry a large share of the notices, not all of them.

And everything that publishes beside them
Beyond the national channels, 20 more sources in South Africa publish their own notices. We count them by category without naming them: the complete source map is what sets the radar apart, and it is not published.
The buyers with the biggest budgets, provinces, metros, utilities, are exactly the ones that publish on their own addresses. A watch limited to the national portal reads the headline and misses the body.
What TRINTA does on this market
TRINTA reads these sources every day so the company does not have to. The radar is built per client: it starts from the company's real catalogue, builds a multilingual keyword profile, then scores every notice 0 to 100 against what the company actually sells, with the reasoning shown. Procedure documents are retrieved and attached, and a short scored list arrives each morning.
The same radar covers 153+ countries and 1,539 mapped official platforms, plus the multilateral lenders. A company selling in South Africa rarely sells only in South Africa.
