Professional engineering services

The market for professional engineering services in the Western Cape is worth about R17 million, with 56 suppliers currently active in the space. This market is relatively stable, with no year-over-year growth, which could indicate a competitive landscape. It's also worth noting that the majority of the spend, about 64%, goes to black-owned businesses, so having a strong black economic empowerment programme in place could be beneficial. The market is moderately crowded, with four government departments procuring these services from a pool of suppliers. To get a foothold in this market, you should consider ensuring your organisation is compliant with the relevant black economic empowerment requirements and start building relationships with the key government departments in the Western Cape.
