We kick-off our B-BBEE journey with an Introductory / Information sharing session, which assists in:

1. Establishing your company’s current structure and position,
2. What the end goal(s) are,
3. What the project and/or action plan is (including specific tailormade deliverables), and
4. Who the key role-players are within your company, who have been designated as the Overall B-BBEE or element specific champions.

• A Score Assessment which, based on the applicable Code and your measured Financial Year End period, is indicative of your current B-BBEE score for each of the scorecard elements.
• A Cost Benefit Analysis and Strategy will:

1. Identify any gaps, risks or issues and the impact thereof in terms of losing points, dropping a level on your B-BBEE scorecard and the probability of being a Non-compliant B-BBEE contributor whilst
2. Highlighting available and feasible opportunities to obtain lost and/or additional points which will improve your score and overall B-BBEE level if these opportunities were to be seized.
