Reference in this document to SAA shall include reference to SAAT unless specifically stated otherwise.

This is inspired by our belief in service excellence, integrity, accountability, quality, safety, people development and value to our shareholders.

SAA’s new values and business practices guide all our business relations. Our business partners and suppliers are encouraged to uphold, promote and share the same values and vision.

1.2 PROCUREMENT PHILOSOPHY

It is the policy of SAA, when purchasing GOODS, to follow a course of optimum value and efficiency by adopting best purchasing practices in supply chain management, ensuring where possible that open and fair

1/9/2018 Page 3 of 20 STRATEGIC PROCUREMENT REQUEST FOR TENDER competition has prevailed, with due regard being paid to the importance of:

This value system governs all commercial behaviour within SAA.

1.3 SAA BLACK ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT (BEE) PROGRAMME STATEMENT OF POLICY

It is the policy of SAA to promote Black Economic Empowerment by enabling qualifying Black Suppliers and SMME Suppliers, to meaningfully participate in the mainstream of the SAA procurement endeavours.
