The Tshwane South College in Pretoria has been accused of flouting its supply chain management (SCM) policy after awarding a R5.8 million contract to an existing service provider instead of putting it out on open tender.
The institution's SCM documents specify that long-term contracts and goods or services above a transaction value of R1 million must be procured through a competitive bidding process.
But the technical and vocational education and training (TVET) college - one of 50 in the country - awarded a contract for the erection of electric fences, among other things, at its Atteridgeville and Odi campuses in Mabopane around August last year to Talima Management Services without open tendering.
