B-BBEE is not something that should only be considered when verification approaches. We help businesses understand their current position, identify opportunities and implement practical actions throughout the measured period.
Whether you need support with a specific element, preparation for verification or an ongoing B-BBEE strategy, our approach is built around what your business needs to achieve and what can realistically be implemented.
B-BBEE decisions can affect procurement, people, training, supplier relationships, investment and access to business opportunities.
A well-managed B-BBEE strategy helps your business:
The objective is not to chase points at any cost. It is to make informed B-BBEE decisions that support the required outcome and make commercial sense for the business.
We assess your available data and current B-BBEE position to identify gaps, risks and available opportunities.
We develop practical recommendations around the elements that require attention, considering targets, budgets, timelines and business priorities.
We track implementation and supporting evidence throughout the measured period so that progress can be reviewed before verification approaches.
The elements, targets and measurement requirements applicable to your business depend on its size, ownership structure and applicable B-BBEE Code or Sector Code. We help you understand what applies to your organisation and where intervention may be required.
Ownership measures the extent of Black ownership and participation in the economic interests and voting rights of the business, subject to the requirements of the applicable B-BBEE Code or Sector Code.
How we help:
Our role is to help you understand the B-BBEE implications of ownership decisions so that these can be considered alongside the wider commercial, legal and financial requirements of the business.
Management Control considers the representation and participation of Black people within management and the workforce, in accordance with the applicable scorecard requirements.
How we help:
Management Control should not be managed separately from Employment Equity. Decisions about recruitment, promotion, development and succession can influence both.
Skills Development measures qualifying investment in the training and development of Black people, together with applicable participation and outcome requirements under the relevant B-BBEE Code.
How we help:
The strongest Skills Development strategies do more than generate B-BBEE points — they connect training spend with actual workforce and business needs.
Preferential Procurement measures qualifying procurement from suppliers based on the requirements of the applicable B-BBEE scorecard.
How we help:
The objective is not to replace suppliers unnecessarily. We first look at your existing supply chain and identify where practical improvements can be made.
Supplier Development focuses on qualifying support provided to Black-owned and qualifying suppliers within or potentially entering your supply chain, in accordance with the applicable B-BBEE requirements.
How we help:
Effective Supplier Development should create measurable value for the beneficiary while supporting the transformation objectives of the measured entity.
Enterprise Development recognises qualifying support provided to eligible Black-owned businesses, with the objective of contributing to their development and sustainability.
How we help:
Enterprise Development builds tomorrow’s suppliers, while strengthening your B-BBEE score today.
Socio-Economic Development recognises qualifying initiatives that contribute to improving the economic participation and access to opportunities of eligible beneficiaries, subject to the applicable B-BBEE requirements.
How we help:
We help ensure that contributions are properly planned, appropriately evidenced and capable of being recognised during verification.
