South Africa's power utility appears to be on a procurement drive as it posts large numbers of requests to National Treasury's interim eTender portal, with the technology sector set to benefit from the spend.

Eskom is battling infrastructure failure, electricity generation shortfalls, financial woes, rating agency downgrades, media scrutiny and long-standing lack of consumer confidence. Additionally, the company has received significant attention from the State Capture Commission as allegations of corruption; financial mismanagement; dodgy deals; undue favouritism both within and outside the organisation; and all round lack of good governance.

Government has also had to step in to help the company service its debt, committing to a R138 billion bailout in October 2019 to be dispersed over three years. Despite this, concerns remain about Eskom's R480 billion debt burden and whether it will be able to remain financially and operationally stable.

Eskom is the lead tender advertiser this week, with six tenders on offer and a further three requests for information. Nevertheless, service providers may be hesitant to enter into agreements with the company, given media exposure of multiple contract disagreements and concerning reports of its ability to service its debt.

Services demand leads this week with the software sector following closely with 62 and 60 opportunities on offer respectively. Hardware interest is also robust, with 42 advertisements, while the telecommunications sector attracts steady interest with eight requests.

Moving to concluded tenders, announcements have been made of two cancellations and seven awards. Of the latter, three entities have included attachments on the site disclosing the value of the agreements.
