Evaluation Criteria
Source: Tender Doc LG 04 Ballot Paper Printing.pdf (TENDER)
Scoring follows the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act (PPPFA) and Regulations, 2022. The applicable preference point system (80/20 or 90/10) will be determined by the lowest acceptable bid's rand value: 80/20 for ≤R50M, 90/10 for >R50M. Points are allocated as follows: Price (80 or 90 points) using the formula Ps = 80 or 90 (1 - (Pt - Pmin)/Pmin), where Pt = bid price, Pmin = lowest acceptable bid price. B-BBEE specific goals (20 or 10 points) awarded per the following table: Level 1: 20/10, Level 2: 18/9, Level 3: 14/6, Level 4: 12/5, Level 5: 8/4, Level 6: 6/3, Level 7: 4/2, Level 8: 2/1, Non-compliant: 0/0. Bidders must submit valid B-BBEE certificates/affidavits (EMEs: CIPC certificate or sworn affidavit; QSEs: sworn affidavit or SANAS-verified certificate; others: SANAS-verified certificate). Subcontracting >25% to entities with lower B-BBEE status forfeits specific goal points. Ties are resolved by highest specific goal points, then by drawing lots. Market-related pricing is mandatory; non-compliance may lead to negotiation or cancellation.
