The Black Business Federation said it was consulting its legal advisors on a challenge to National Treasury's latest Preferential Public Procurement Framework guidelines. | Fin24

Khulekani MagubaneThe Black Business Federation is planning a legal challenge to the National Treasury's newly released draft Preferential Public Procurement Framework guidelines, saying that the draft guidelines leave black South Africans and their businesses at a disadvantage when bidding for government tenders.

National Treasury's draft regulations – released pending clarity from the Constitutional Court on its ruling – bring procurement back in line with the system that existed before 2017, which proposes an 80/20 BEE preference point system for the acquisition of goods with a value of up to R50 million and a 90/10 BEE preference points system for goods valued higher than R50 million.

"The Black Business Federation has decided to organise a team of procurement and legal experts to examine the judgment and provide us with well-informed advice, after which we will proceed in challenging the constitutional court judgment in a well-guided manner," said Zondi.
