Quote Description: THE APPOINTMENT OF A PROFESSIONAL SERVICE PROVIDER TO CONDUCT AN ORGANISATIONAL CULTURE ASSESSMENT AND PROVIDE RECOMMENDED INTERVENTIONS FOR THE DESIRED CULTURE AT THE NATIONAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION.
Closing Date and Time: 05 February 2026 @ 16:00
High Level Summary of Requirements: The purpose of this project is to undertake a comprehensive assessment of the NRF’s organisational culture to clearly surface the current (manifest) culture. This involves identifying the positive, negative, and missing elements that shape employees’ lived experiences. Insights from this assessment will be used to co-create a desired future culture (NRF Aspirational Culture and the Culture Statement)—one that is defined and embraced by NRF stakeholders, particularly employees.

The NRF recognises that a scientifically literate and critically engaged society is essential to South Africa’s transition into a knowledge-driven economy. To achieve this, the organisation aims to strengthen the relationship between science and society over the next decade by creating a Fit-for-Purpose institution that leads national science engagement efforts, embeds engaged research across the knowledge enterprise, and positions the NRF as a key player in global science engagement discourse.

Central to delivering this strategic vision is a cohesive culture. Organisational strategies can only be realised when employees understand, believe in, and are motivated to deliver on them. For this reason, culture becomes a critical enabler of performance, health, and transformation. The NRF therefore seeks to embed a unified culture—OneNRF—characterised by accountability, excellence, learning, coherence, and agility. This culture should empower the organisation to operate efficiently, embrace emerging technologies, and remain resilient and adaptable in a rapidly changing environment.
