Software

The Eastern Cape software market is worth about R2.5 million, which is a decent size for a niche like this. What's interesting is that it's not growing or shrinking, it's staying steady with zero year-on-year growth. You've also got a relatively small pool of suppliers to compete with, just two other organisations currently providing software to the three departments in the province. The Department of Education, Department of Health, and Department of Public Works are likely the key departments to focus on. If I were you, I'd consider getting your Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) level in order, as about 47% of the spend is allocated to black-owned businesses, which could give you a favour in the procurement process.
