The 80/20 preference point system applies unless all bids exceed R50,000,000, in which case the 90/10 system is used. Points are awarded for Price (80 or 90) and Specific Goals (20 or 10). Specific Goals include: Black Women Owned (3 points), Black Disability Owned (3 points), Black Youth Owned (3 points), Black Owned (1 point). Only bids meeting all administrative and functional requirements proceed to evaluation. The Bid Evaluation Committee may adjust scores based on presentations.
