BBBEE Verification
In terms of legislation and the Codes of Good Practice all commercial
entities are encouraged to have their BBBEE status verified. There are
three classifications or scorecards to verify and validate the BBBEE status of
commercial entities: Micro, QSE (Qualifying Small Enterprise) and Generic.
-
Our verification methodology is of the highest quality and professionalism and meets all the standards and criteria related to
BBBEE verification.
-
We use independent, qualified BEE Analysts to carry out our
verifications.
- Every care is taken to ensure that no conflict of interest exists before
we undertake onsite verification.
