APPOINTMENT OF A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR ASSISTING THE LESEDI LOCAL MUNICIPALITY IN COMPILING THE MUNICIPAL HUMAN SETTLEMENT/HOUSING SECTOR PLAN.

Lesedi Local Municipality has issued an open tender for a service provider to help it produce the municipality's human settlement and housing sector plan. The advertisement is carried on South Africa's national treasury e-tenders channel, and the work sits in the housing and public administration fields. Beyond the title, the notice supplies no narrative: there is no statement of what the plan must cover, how the assignment would be run, how long it would last, what budget attaches to it, or what a bidder would have to show to be considered. A prospective bidder therefore has the subject of the work and the identity of the buyer, and nothing on which to build a technical approach, a price or a team. The notice does not state the scope of the work, its deliverables, its duration or the qualifications and documents a bidder must submit.
