Compulsory Competitive Tendering

Compulsory Competitive Tendering (CCT) is a process where government or public agencies require private companies to compete for the opportunity to provide specific services, such as waste collection, cleaning, or maintenance. This involves companies submitting proposals, with the contract awarded based on criteria like cost, quality, and efficiency. The aim is to promote transparency, ensure value for money, and encourage better service standards. CCT is often mandated by regulations to prevent favoritism and stimulate competitive practices in public service provision, ultimately benefiting taxpayers and the community through improved services at reasonable costs.
