## About

```text
At Mphagahle Holdings, I coordinate tender activity from opportunity identification through submission. I prepare RFQs, RFPs and bid documents against client and contractual requirements, check submissions for completeness and compliance, and maintain bid files for audit readiness.

Previously, as Tender Administration Manager at Mavelakashane, I compiled and submitted tenders against Eskom procurement requirements and improved filing procedures for document retrieval. My experience also includes office administration, payroll and timesheets, supplier coordination, and customer service.
