Buyers with similar baskets

Nearest procurement mixes by revealed specialisation (cosine similarity), regardless of sphere or size. Descriptive, not a comparison of performance.

Categories at least two of these peers award that Waterberg District Municipality hasn't published awards in: Services: General (2 peers), Other service activities (2 peers), Services: Functional (Including Cleaning and Security Services) (2 peers), Information and communication (2 peers), Other professional, scientific and technical activities (2 peers). A gap can be a choice as easily as an omission.

Capital spend context

Audited capital expenditure for Waterberg (DC36) from National Treasury's Municipal Money, for scale against the 9 awards published here. Large capex with few published awards usually means procurement happens outside the eTenders portal, not that it is not happening.
