Bosch Ulwazi plays a key role in Transnet Port Terminals
(TPT) Enterprise Development Programme
As part of its Enterprise Development Programme, Transnet
Port Terminals tasked Bosch Ulwazi with the development of
20 emerging enterprises in December 2013. The programme’s
aim is to grow and maintain sustainable businesses with the
final goal being to develop these businesses to become
value adding suppliers to TPT.
Management Services have also taken a vested interest in
the programme and will be assisting with the mentoring.
Govender, said, “Having high calibre mentors such as Danai
Magugumela and the other managing directors on board,
means our candidates will receive the best possible guidance
and coaching”.
The programme is aptly named Singakwenza Kwenzeke, ‘We
can make it happen’, and is aimed at 100% black womenowned engineering companies. TPT is Bosch Ulwazi’s largest
external Client on its Enterprise Development Programme with
an investment of R3 million. Business Manager Balan Govender
said, “Working with Transnet is the perfect opportunity to
grow the Enterprise Development Programme”.

TPT approached Bosch Ulwazi to carry out this task, as it is the
only known Enterprise Development facilitator that focuses on
the development of engineering organizations and because
of TPT’s commitment to development in South Africa. Bosch
Ulwazi is also uniquely equipped for this venture as they have
the full support of Bosch Holdings’ vast engineering team to
help the process along.
The project will run for 12 months with the possibility of
extending to 24 months.
