Management advisory services

The market for management advisory services is a significant one, with the government spending about R242 million on these services nationally. This market is relatively stable, with no year-on-year growth, which could indicate that it's a mature market with established players. With 370 suppliers competing for contracts across 37 different departments, it's a fairly crowded space, so you'll need to differentiate your business to stand out. It's also worth noting that the government has a strong focus on supporting black-owned businesses, with about 46% of the spend allocated to these organisations. If I were you, I'd make sure your B-BBEE level is up to date and that you have a clear understanding of how to leverage this to your favour when competing for government contracts.
