Infrastructure South Africa raises alarm over high level of tender cancellations

Infrastructure South Africa (ISA) has raised concern about the high level of tender cancellations, which it believes is having a negative impact on the construction market, as well as on meeting the country’s goal of raising gross fixed capital formation (GFCF) to 30% of GDP. ISA acting head Simphiwe Ndlovu told members of Parliament’s Select Committee on Public Infrastructure that a recent high-level analysis showed that more than 70% of the total number of advertised tenders had been either cancelled or closed.
