Babcock Africa Ignite Award Winner

Collaborate Award

Tendani has strengthened the engineering business by embedding a culture of collaboration across commercial, technical, and leadership teams.

She introduced standard operating procedures and bid categorisation, which cut response times by 35% and improved tender win rates from 2.01% to 5.77%.

Her ability to align teams on high-stakes contracts, such as the R20bn Boilerserv project, ensured robust, timely submissions. Colleagues trust her structured approach, which breaks silos and improves cross-functional confidence. Customers now benefit from faster responses, sharper pricing, and better solutions. Tendani has made collaboration a competitive advantage for Babcock.
