B-BBEE Structuring.
Your level decides whether you win the tender or lose it. We work out where your points actually are, structure ownership deals that stand up to scrutiny, and get you through verification — at a fee agreed upfront.
Your B-BBEE status depends on your annual turnover category and, above the Exempted Micro Enterprise threshold, on a scorecard measured against the Amended Codes of Good Practice issued under the B-BBEE Act 53 of 2003. Ownership, skills development and enterprise or supplier development typically move a score the most, provided the underlying structure is genuine rather than engineered on paper alone.
Governing legislation: Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act 53 of 2003 and the Codes of Good Practice issued under it.

Questions
Straight answers before you apply.
What does B-BBEE structuring involve?
Designing and documenting the ownership, trust and employee scheme structures that give real economic interest and voting rights, then aligning them with the scorecard element you are targeting.
Can you help with verification?
We prepare the legal documents and the evidence pack your verification agency will ask for. We are not a verification agency ourselves, which keeps the work independent.
What does it cost?
A fixed fee agreed upfront in writing per mandate, based on the structure you need.
Which areas do you serve?
We work from our offices in Pretoria (Faerie Glen) and Sandton (Sandown) with clients in all nine provinces.
