Supplier Vetting & Compliance Audits
Know exactly who you are buying from. We verify suppliers’ B-BBEE status, tax, labour and registration compliance before they cost you money or reputation.
Every supplier you appoint carries risk — to your compliance, your B-BBEE scorecard, your operations and your reputation. Supplier vetting is the due diligence that confirms a vendor is who they say they are, is legally compliant, and is capable of delivering.
ProcureWise vets suppliers using proprietary scoring tools built on more than 20 years of procurement experience. We check registration, tax and labour compliance, classify suppliers correctly for B-BBEE purposes, and segment your supplier base by risk so you can focus attention where it matters most.

- Risk-based supplier segmentation
Who it’s for

Supplier Vetting & Compliance Audits: frequently asked questions
What does supplier vetting check?
We verify a supplier’s company registration (CIPC), tax compliance (SARS), labour compliance (UIF and COIDA), occupational health and safety (OSH) obligations, sector licences where applicable, and their B-BBEE status. Each supplier is then scored against a vendor matrix and classified by risk.
Why does supplier vetting matter for B-BBEE?
Your preferential procurement score depends on the B-BBEE status of the suppliers you buy from. Incorrectly classified or non-compliant suppliers can reduce your score, so accurate supplier classification protects your B-BBEE level.
Can you vet our existing supplier base, not just new suppliers?
Yes. We can audit your current vendor list, flag gaps and risks, and segment suppliers so you know which relationships need attention first.
