Procurement regulations stipulate that no tenders may close during the period 15 December to 15 January of any financial year. Therefore, requisitions for the procurement of the following must be submitted to the Directorate: Logistical Services by no later than 30 November 2006:
| (a) |
Goods and/or services procured via the tender process
|
| (b) |
All equipment such as furniture or computer equipment, etc.
|
| (c) |
Other goods and/or services such as office requirements, printer cartridges, etc.
|
|

Responsibility managers must attach a completed BAS Expenditure Structure form (PGWC 002) to their requisitions. They must indicate on the form what amount of money has been allocated for this type of service.
|
| 3. |
It must be borne in mind that the procurement of furniture and equipment is a time-consuming process and normally involves a delivery period of 60 days. It is also important that these type of services are paid before the end of the financial year. For this reason, requisitions for furniture and equipment will not be accepted after 15 December 2006.
