NAT: MINERAL PETROLEUM RESOURCES

The National Department of Mineral Resources and Energy has a total budget of about R123 million, which is spent across various commodities, with the largest portion, about 35%, going towards banking and investment services, totalling about R42 million. They also spend a significant amount on management advisory services, about R26 million, which is 21% of their budget. Their top suppliers include the Council for Geoscience and Broll Property Group, who receive about R25 million and R22 million respectively. With no year-on-year growth in spending, it's worth noting that they're not increasing their procurement budget. If I were you, I'd still consider targeting this department, especially if your business offers banking, investment, or management advisory services, as they clearly favour these types of services and have a established relationships with key suppliers.
