Public order and safety

The market for public order and safety services in the Northern Cape province is worth about R17 million. This market is relatively small and not growing, with no year-over-year growth recorded. It's also a fairly exclusive space, with only 10 suppliers currently working with just 2 government departments. Notably, the majority of the spend, about 86% of it, goes to black-owned businesses, so having a strong black economic empowerment programme in place could be beneficial. To get a foothold in this market, you should consider ensuring your organisation meets the requirements for a favourable B-BBEE level, as this seems to be a key factor in securing government contracts in this space.
