SASSETA’s Service Provider Portal helps suppliers register, manage profiles, and participate in RFQs and RFPs to do business with the Safety and Security Sector Education and Training Authority.
Overview of the SASSETA SCM Service Provider Portal
Safety and Security Sector Education and Training Authority maintains a dedicated Supply Chain Management Service Provider Portal to support transparent, fair, and compliant procurement. The portal enables eligible suppliers to register, manage company information, and participate in sourcing processes issued by SASSETA.
All procurement activities on the portal align with public sector SCM legislation and procedures, ensuring accountability across sourcing, evaluation, contracting, and payment processes.
What Is the SASSETA Service Provider Portal?
The Service Provider Portal is an online platform that allows registered suppliers to interact directly with SASSETA’s SCM processes. Through the portal, suppliers can:
- Maintain company profile information, including registration details, contacts, banking details, and addresses
- View and respond to Requests for Quotations (RFQs) and Requests for Proposals (RFPs)
- Submit bids and supporting documents electronically
- Track procurement interactions once logged in
SASSETA uses the National Treasury Central Supplier Database as its authoritative supplier register. Only suppliers with an active CSD profile are eligible to do business with SASSETA.
