We do it so you don't have to.
Your own AI admin assistant, social media and design, a fast website, and registrations, RFQs and tenders that are complete, correct and on time, from registering your (Pty) Ltd to SARS, COIDA, CIDB and CSD. A real person checks every step. Nationwide, by WhatsApp, email and online upload.
Pick one service or combine them into one monthly system. Every price is published, fixed and agreed before we start.
Inbox triage, drafted replies, quotes, invoices, payment reminders, tender alerts and compliance reminders in your own accounts. Checked by Lyle every business day.

fixed prices from R200Fast, mobile-first business websites, a .co.za domain with business email, and Google Business Profile set-up.
from R1,790How to pay: Pay securely by card via Yoco. Put your name and the service in the reference. We start once payment reflects.
Each Pay now button opens our Yoco page (pay.yoco.com/tender-solutions) in a new tab with the amount filled in. It covers our fee only; any government or hosting fee shown is paid separately at cost. Variable-price and monthly services show Get a quote; monthly plans show Pay setup for the once-off setup fee and Get started on WhatsApp for the monthly plan. Not sure what you need, or prefer EFT? Ask us first.
We set up an AI assistant inside your own email, WhatsApp Business and invoicing. It sorts your inbox, drafts replies, quotes and invoices, chases payments, sends daily tender alerts and reminds you before your CSD, tax PIN, B-BBEE or CIPC annual return expires. Lyle checks its work every business day, and nothing is sent in your name without your approval.
Inbox and compliance on autopilot
Quotes, invoices, WhatsApp and tenders
Your complete remote admin desk
Everything runs in accounts you own (Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, WhatsApp Business, Zoho Invoice or Sage). You pay those providers directly, usually from about R155/month and often R0 extra if you already have business email. We use delegated access, never your password. You can remove our access at any time.
We act as your operator under a written operator agreement (POPIA sections 20–21): confidentiality, security safeguards, 24-hour breach notice and deletion when you leave. Drafts only: you approve every email, quote, invoice and non-standard WhatsApp before it goes out.
Pay the setup fee, then a 45-minute discovery call, then access and set-up, then a 2-week supervised trial. After that, the monthly fee is payable in advance. Month-to-month, with one month's notice. Extra time costs R320/hour. Hours apply Mon–Fri 08:00–17:00. No VAT is charged.
Not included: bookkeeping, payroll, tax returns, legal advice or debt collection (we'll refer you to a registered professional); sending or paying anything without your approval; marketing to people who haven't opted in; bid preparation and registrations (charged at our normal prices). We don't take on medical, surgical, PPE or cleaning/hygiene clients. Not sure which plan fits? Ask us first.
AI-assisted design and content, checked and finished by a person: posts, short videos, flyers, price lists and catalogues, plus your Google Business Profile, reviews, website updates and opt-in WhatsApp broadcasts. You approve the content calendar before anything is posted. Need a single design? See the design price list.
Show up consistently
Grow enquiries and reviews
Your full online presence
Your Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok and Google profiles stay in your name. We're added as a partner or manager, never with your password. Ads run in your own Meta ad account and are billed to your card. The optional ad management fee is R1,250/month, and your ad budget goes to Meta, not us.
Broadcasts go only to customers who have opted in, every message offers an easy opt-out, and we keep a record of consent (POPIA section 69 and WhatsApp's rules). We never buy lists or post fake or paid-for reviews.
Canva, CapCut, Meta Business Suite and Google Business Profile. The design tools are on us. Printing, ad budgets and any WhatsApp API message fees are paid at cost or directly by you. Month-to-month, with one month's notice.
Not included: guaranteed followers, sales or rankings; paid influencer deals; ad budgets; printing; trademark registration; content that breaks platform rules or the ARB advertising code. We don't take on medical, surgical, PPE or cleaning/hygiene clients.
AI speeds up the first concepts and we finish every design by hand, so you get original, print-ready and editable files. Printing and ad budgets are paid at cost or directly by you.

Wherever your business is, we handle your CSD registration, CIPC company registration, B-BBEE affidavit, SARS registrations, COIDA, CIDB and tender documents remotely. Head office: George, Western Cape.
Chat on WhatsApp (065 768 6548) or email info@4irsolutions.co.za. Quotes, questions and progress updates all happen in writing, so you have a record.
Send clear photos or PDFs on WhatsApp or email, or use a secure upload link we send you (no account needed). We never ask for your passwords. You log in to eFiling, CSD and CIPC yourself.
For TCS PINs, eFiling and portal steps, we walk you through it on a WhatsApp or video call while you stay logged in. Affidavits can be signed for free at your nearest police station.
Including all 8 metros: City of Johannesburg, City of Tshwane, Ekurhuleni, City of Cape Town, eThekwini (Durban), Nelson Mandela Bay, Buffalo City, Mangaung. We can register you on the supplier database of any of South Africa's 257 municipalities (8 metropolitan, 44 district and 205 local) or a provincial database, as long as it's open to new suppliers.
WhatsApp, email or the form below, from anywhere in South Africa. Send the RFQ or tender document if you have one, plus your closing date.
We confirm exactly what's included, what documents we need from you, and the price. Registrations are paid upfront; RFQs and tenders need a 50% deposit to start.
You send documents by WhatsApp, email or a secure upload link. We register, update and complete the forms with you, and flag anything missing well before the deadline.
You get a checked, complete pack to sign and submit (or we help you submit online). You stay in control of your bid.
Most tenders and RFQs ask for the same core documents. Gather what you can. We'll help you get the rest.
No, and nobody honestly can. Awards are decided by the organ of state, usually on price and preference points (e.g. 80/20 or 90/10) and on functionality. We make sure your submission is complete, compliant and on time, which avoids the most common reasons bids are disqualified. Be wary of anyone who promises awards or offers "inside" tender lists.
Only once you've approved them. The assistant works inside your own Gmail or Outlook, WhatsApp Business and invoicing accounts. It sorts messages and prepares drafts, and Lyle checks every draft. You approve before anything goes out. The only exception is routine WhatsApp answers (hours, directions, price list) that you have approved in writing in advance. You keep ownership of your accounts, we never ask for your passwords, and you can remove our access at any time. See the AI Admin plans.
Typical turnaround once we have your documents:
Urgent job? Ask us. We'll tell you honestly if the deadline is realistic.
You can pay by:
You'll get an invoice for every payment.
Some registrations carry an official fee, for example R175 to CIPC for a Pty Ltd with a reserved name, R450 per class of works to the cidb, the NHBRC application and annual fees, the CIPC annual-return fee (based on turnover) or your Compensation Fund assessment. We show these separately and pass them on at cost with no mark-up. Many registrations, such as CSD, SARS, UIF and B-BBEE affidavits, are free.
Yes. We build a one-page business website (R1,790) or a 5-page website (R4,950), set up your .co.za domain and business email (R450) and your Google Business Profile (R590), and can keep it up to date for R240/month. Hosting and the domain are in your name and paid at cost, for example Afrihost Silver hosting at R84/month, which includes a free .co.za domain for the first year. Starting a company?

You can do them yourself. Our fee is for doing it with you quickly and correctly, so your profile verifies first time and matches your tender documents.
You do. The bid is in your company's name and you sign the declarations, so you remain responsible for the accuracy of the information. You confirm every price and fact. We prepare and check everything; you log in to portals yourself and we never keep your passwords. We never sign on your behalf or use anyone else's credentials.

Head office is in George, Western Cape, where meetings are by appointment. Everything else happens by WhatsApp, email and online document upload. We can register you on any municipality's or province's supplier database that accepts new suppliers.
Whichever is easiest for you: clear photos or PDFs on WhatsApp, email attachments to info@4irsolutions.co.za, or a secure upload link we send you (you don't need an account). Where a certified copy is required, any police station can certify it. We never ask for your eFiling, CSD, CIPC or banking passwords, and we delete your documents when the job ends unless you ask us to keep them (see our privacy notice).
Building and maintenance, catering, transport, security, IT, printing, events, professional services and more. To avoid conflicts of interest we don't act for clients who supply or bid in medical, surgical, PPE or cleaning/hygiene categories.
We use your information only to deliver the service you asked for, keep it secure, and never sell or share it except with the government bodies you're applying to. Read our POPIA privacy notice.
