Strategic Management Principles Course

The Municipal Infrastructure Support Agent (MISA), based in Centurion, Gauteng, invites service providers to submit quotations for a strategic management principles course for one official. The course is intended to equip managers with the skills and tools needed to understand and apply strategic management in a public sector context. Quotations must be submitted on the service provider's letterhead and addressed to MISA. Pricing must include VAT. The quotation must cover course material, a certificate of completion and refreshments, and must exclude transport and accommodation costs. The closing date is 9 November 2026 at 11:00.

The required course content is not limited to the topics listed in the specification, but must at minimum cover the strategic management process and its implementation. This includes analysing the internal and external environment and conducting gap analysis. Participants are expected to gain practical mastery of analytical tools used in strategic planning, learn how to select and implement appropriate strategies, and engage in structured discussion on leadership. The course is aimed at building the capacity of managers to translate strategic intent into implementable action, which supports effective service delivery and sound governance in municipal and public sector environments.

The benefit to MISA is a practical, applied learning experience for a manager responsible for strategic decision-making. Service providers should demonstrate relevant subject-matter expertise, a clear and structured course outline, and experience delivering management or strategy training to public sector or senior-level audiences. Bidders should also show how the course will be delivered and assessed, and confirm that the certificate and course materials will be provided. As standard for government procurement, bidders should be registered on the Central Supplier Database (CSD) and have valid tax compliance status, and should submit their quotation in accordance with the pricing schedule.
