What qualifications are typically required for consulting tenders?

Most consulting tenders require relevant professional qualifications (MBA, CA, engineering degrees, etc.), proven track record with similar projects, and often registration with professional bodies (e.g. SACPCMP, SAICA, Engineering Council). Staff CVs form a critical part of bid evaluation.

How are consulting tenders evaluated?

Consulting tenders typically use a functionality/quality threshold (minimum 60-70 points on technical criteria) before price is considered. Unlike goods tenders, quality weighs heavily. Poorly priced but high-quality bids often win over the cheapest option.
