National Department Of Statistics South Africa, Statistics South Africa (Stats SA) hereby notifies all prospective suppliers interested to register as a preferred vendor of Stats SA that all new registrations must be done via the Central Supplier Database as established by the National Treasury by using the following link. www.csd.gov.za.
National Treasury on behalf of the Government has implemented a Central Supplier Database to serve as the source for all supplier information for all spheres of government with effect from 1 April 2016. This initiative is based on principles of simplification, standardization, and automation of the supplier management process
All prospective suppliers interested in pursuing opportunities within the South African government are encouraged to self-register on the Central Supplier Database. The self-registration application represents an expression of interest from the supplier to conduct business with the South African government. Once submitted, prospective vendor application details will be assessed for inclusion on the Central Supplier Database.
Vendors already registered on Stats SA’s Supplier Database and who also registered on the CSD must provide Stats SA’s (Supplier Database Section) with their CSD supplier number and unique security code as well as any other relevant documentation (not yet electronically verified by the CSD)
