Qualifying Small Enterprises - Differences Between BEE For QSEs and Generic (large) Enterprises

Differences Between BEE For QSEs and Generic (large) Enterprises

The differences are substantial and the compliance with the measurement criteria for QSEs is far less onerous than for large enterprises. The first difference relates to the weighting of each element of the codes. For large enterprises the codes are weighted differently, with various weightings from 5% – 20%, look at the section on Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment for more details. However each category for a QSE has a weighting of 25%, and only 4 need be measured. Click here for more details.

Qualifying Small Enterprises are measured in terms of Code 800 of the "The Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment Act (53/2003): Codes of Good Practice on Black Economic Empowerment" as opposed to Code 100 through 700. However, codes 100–700 provide the theoretical background upon which Code 800 is based, and as such it is imperative that QSEs understand the full Act.

Famous quotes containing the words differences, bee, generic and/or enterprises:

    What strikes many twin researchers now is not how much identical twins are alike, but rather how different they are, given the same genetic makeup....Multiples don’t walk around in lockstep, talking in unison, thinking identical thoughts. The bond for normal twins, whether they are identical or fraternal, is based on how they, as individuals who are keenly aware of the differences between them, learn to relate to one another.
    Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)

    Ah evil wedlock! Ah fate!
    she incites all to evil,
    she flutters over all things,
    like a bee in flight.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “Mother” has always been a generic term synonymous with love, devotion, and sacrifice. There’s always been something mystical and reverent about them. They’re the Walter Cronkites of the human race . . . infallible, virtuous, without flaws and conceived without original sin, with no room for ambivalence.
    Erma Bombeck (20th century)

    There is nothing man will not attempt when great enterprises hold out the promise of great rewards.
    Titus Livius (Livy)
