It’s amazing how Oilonga Media’s tendering courses are structured to address nearly all relevant bidding issues applicable across all sectors of the Namibian economy. On behalf of the Namibian Society of Engineers (NASE), and indeed the entire engineering profession, I would recommend the workshops to any contractor, engineer and technical person who is involved in tendered works and capital project management.

Course Description
This densely packed course empowers participants to respond to tenders in a compliant, effective way by teaching the participants everything they need to know in responding to a bid or quotation. It familiarises the participants with the whole tender process and requirements to submit tenders. The content covers both private and public sector tenders.
The tendering process in the Namibian public sector can be a bureaucratic minefield with each public sector body (Ministries, Local Authorities, Parastatals, etc) having its own set of rules and procedures. However, there are some general, governing principles that apply to all competitive tenders.
It offers a comprehensive understanding of responding to tenders according to the Public Procurement Act, 2015 (Act 15 of 2015). Enterprises supplying goods or services to Organs of the State must comply with the provisions of the relevant legislation. This is critical for any company that wants to compete effectively and lucratively for Government Contracts to understand these principles.
Competition can be fierce as public bodies spend a lot of money outsourcing contracts to businesses, and everyone wants a piece of the pie. Many larger organizations have bid writing teams to compete for these contracts. However, tender writing is an art. It is a skill and it can be learned! You don’t need a bid writing team to win a tender. Don’t be intimidated by the bureaucracy and process because, in the end, it all comes down to knowing your business and knowing what your buyer wants.
