Repeat-winner detection

Identify who consistently wins in specific departments — and understand how they're structured.

Real pricing benchmarks

Actual awarded contract values — so you know if you're pricing too high, too low, or exactly right.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything South African SMEs need to know about winning government tenders with AI.

Which government departments do you track?

Our pipeline tracks the National eTender Portal, major state-owned entities (Eskom, Transnet, SANRAL, PRASA), and provincial treasury portals daily — covering thousands of active opportunities across all nine provinces.

Is Tobey going to write my entire bid?

No. Tobey generates a highly tailored "Proposed Methodology" draft based on the contract's specific SCM requirements. You review, edit, and add your pricing and technical details before submitting. You stay in control.

What B-BBEE level do I need to win tenders?

None is required to bid. Under the Preferential Procurement Regulations a bidder without a B-BBEE certificate or sworn affidavit is not disqualified: it simply scores zero on the preference points. Under the 2017 regulations, on the 80/20 scale Level 1 earns 20 points, Level 2 18, Level 3 14, Level 4 12, Level 5 8, Level 6 6, Level 7 4 and Level 8 2 (on 90/10: Level 1 10, Level 2 9, Level 3 6, Level 4 5). Since the 2023 regulations each organ of state sets its own specific goals and points in the tender itself. Tobey extracts the exact goals and points each tender uses so you know upfront how you score.

What is the CSD and do I need to be registered?

Yes. The Central Supplier Database (CSD) is mandatory for all government contracts. Without a valid CSD number, your bid will be disqualified. PulseBids' Compliance Engine flags this requirement and links you to the registration portal so you're always ready.

Which industries and sectors do you cover?

Construction & Engineering, IT & Technology, Healthcare & Medical, Security & Guarding, Professional Services, Transport & Fleet, Cleaning & Facilities, and more. Our AI matches opportunities specifically to your registered industry categories.

How quickly are new tenders added?

Our pipeline runs multiple times daily. New tenders published on government portals are typically analysed and live on your dashboard within hours, well before most competitors even see them on the eTender website.

Is my company's information kept confidential?

Absolutely. PulseBids complies with POPIA; our Information Officer registration has been submitted to the SA Information Regulator (ref 2026-012047). Your company profile, bid notes, and strategy data are never shared with third parties or competitors.

Can I cancel my subscription?

Absolutely. There are no lock-in contracts. You can cancel your subscription at any time directly from your Account Hub — no calls, no forms, no hassle — and resubscribe whenever you are ready.
