Financial Viability Assessment Services

The North West Provincial Treasury invites suitably qualified service providers to submit quotations for the appointment of a consultant to undertake a comprehensive financial viability assessment of the North West Gambling Board (NWGB). The engagement is procured through a Request for Quotation (RFQ), reference RFQNWDF02-2026, published on 28 October 2026 with a closing date of 11 November 2026. The supporting RFQ document, which sets out the detailed terms of reference, evaluation criteria and submission requirements, should be consulted in full before responding, as its content could not be extracted for this summary.

The core objective of the assignment is to establish the current financial position and sustainability of the NWGB, a public entity responsible for regulating gambling activities in the North West Province. The service provider is expected to review the Board's financial statements, revenue and expenditure patterns, funding sources, cost structures and financial governance arrangements, and to identify risks that may threaten its continued financial sustainability. Based on this assessment, the successful bidder will be required to develop specific, practical initiatives aimed at improving financial health, strengthening revenue management, enhancing cost efficiency and ensuring the Board can meet its statutory mandate over the medium to long term. Recommendations are expected to be actionable and aligned with applicable public finance management principles, including the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA) and relevant National Treasury guidelines.

The assignment will benefit the NWGB, the North West Provincial Treasury and the broader provincial government by providing an evidence-based understanding of the entity's fiscal position and a clear roadmap for sustainable financial management. Bidders should demonstrate relevant experience in public sector financial analysis, financial modelling, governance and advisory work, together with the qualifications and capacity to deliver within the stipulated timeframe. Prospective bidders should verify the specific deliverables, timelines, pricing requirements, compliance documents (including tax clearance and B-BBEE certification) and evaluation methodology in the RFQ document before submitting a quotation.
