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.
  • In addition we treat all of our customers impartially and their information as highly confidential. see our privacy and disclaimer statement
  • You can view our Verification Procedural Flow Chart here

 

The Benefits of Verification

Why should you get verified?

  1. BBBEE compliance enables a company to get preferential procurement from the Government, parastatals and the private sector.
  2. BBBEE compliance enhances your competitive advantage.
  3. BBBEE compliance enhances workforce diversity in your company
  4. By being compliant and verified yearly, you benefit from the key principles of BEE, namely that:
  • Black economic empowerment is broad-based,
  • Black economic empowerment is an inclusive process,
  • Black economic empowerment is associated with good governance,
  • Black economic empowerment is part of South Africa’s growth strategy.

 

The following is a basic guideline to assess what class you fall under.  Each sector, whether Agricultural, Manufacturing, Transport, Retail or Service etc, has its own rating with regard to 'Number of Employees' and 'Annual Turnover'.  To accurately determine your classification contact Kbonga now for an assessment.
