Heavy construction services

R6 million government market · 83 suppliers · FY 2025/26

The market for heavy construction services is a substantial one, with the government spending about R6.5 billion on it. This market is relatively stable, with no year-on-year growth, which could indicate that it's reaching a plateau. With 83 suppliers competing for contracts across 24 different departments, it's a fairly crowded space, but there's still room for your organisation to make a mark, especially if you favour black-owned, women-owned, or youth-owned businesses, which receive a significant portion of the allocation. The fact that 74.58% of the allocation goes to black-owned businesses is a key factor to consider when analysing this market. If I were you, I'd focus on building relationships with the key departments and exploring how your business can meet their heavy construction service needs, particularly if you can demonstrate a strong black ownership component.
