Key Observations

Green Energy leads with a 54% approval rate, reflecting strong policy alignment with SA's Just Energy Transition. Infrastructure accounts for R22.1bn — the single largest sector allocation. Youth-led businesses apply at 31% of total volume but are approved at only 28% — a 3pp equity gap. The Northern Cape shows lowest application volumes, suggesting under-marketing rather than under-eligibility.

OpenTender ZA is a civic prototype. Real API integration requires public data access agreements with National Treasury (CSD), CIPC, SARS, and OCPO. We believe this infrastructure should be publicly funded and openly maintained. Built by Business Hustle · Cape Town.
