Supply Chain Management
Transparent. Accountable. Inclusive. JPC's Approach to Fair and Competitive Procurement.
Overview: Building an Ethical and Competitive Supply Chain
At the City of Joburg Property Company (JPC), our Supply Chain Management (SCM) Policy reflects a commitment to governance excellence, fairness, and economic transformation. As a municipal entity, our procurement activities are guided by the Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA) and the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act (PPPFA), ensuring that public resources are used effectively and equitably.
Our policy supports service delivery by facilitating procurement that is cost-effective, competitive, and aligned with national transformation goals.
Key Objectives of the SCM Policy
- Promote transparency and accountability in all procurement processes.
- Achieve value for money in the acquisition of goods and services.
- Support broad-based economic empowerment, with a focus on local SMMEs.
- Minimize risks of fraud, corruption, and irregular expenditure through strong governance.
- Ensure timely delivery of infrastructure and services that benefit Johannesburg residents.
Guiding Principles
- Fairness and Equity – All bidders receive equal treatment, and opportunities are open and accessible.
- Competitiveness – Contracts are awarded based on value, quality, and impact.
- Transparency – Decisions are documented, reportable, and subject to review.
- Accountability – Officials are held responsible for procurement outcomes.
- Ethical Conduct – All engagements follow strict codes of integrity and honesty.
Why It Matters
Our supply chain is not just about procurement—it's a tool for economic empowerment, community upliftment, and sustainable growth. With the recent updates to national procurement regulations, including revised thresholds and preferential goals, JPC is enhancing its systems to better serve the people of Johannesburg.
