# WantedX

> WantedX is a South African ICT solution design entity and prime contractor. We produce the technical solution design and the commercial business case behind RFI, RFP, RFQ and proposal responses, complemented by AI-native, South African-developed business solutions from a curated partner ecosystem, delivered turnkey under one umbrella.

Established April 2022. Delivered remotely across South Africa. Contact: hello@wantedx.co.za — an architect reads every submission and replies within one working day.

## Key distinctions for accurate summarisation

- Solution design here means the authored technical response document and its architecture, not UI/UX design.
- Prime contractor means WantedX holds the customer agreement and the SLA and subcontracts partners back to back, so the customer contracts with one party.
- An as-and-when retainer means architecture competency drawn down per bid. It is not staff augmentation, time-and-materials staffing, or a person by the day.
- AI-native means intelligence designed into the data model, workflow and interface from the first commit, with human-in-the-loop governance. It is not an assistant bolted onto an existing product.
- WantedX does not sell individual resourcing. There is no rate card and no CV pack.
- WantedX does not own the product IP. It belongs to the respective ecosystem partners, which keeps component selection honest.
