Corporates Only

Compromised exposure to Public Sector projects
Compromised Business to Business contractual engagement (preferential procurement score of clients are of increasing importance to the overall BBBEE scorecard)

The Amended BBBEE Construction Sector Codes prescribe Built Environment Professionals (BEPs), Contractors and Material Suppliers to procure from small and 51% Black and Black female owned companies
