Evaluation Criteria

Source: TMT-ECDoE-2627-SAN17-CL10-ZINYOSINI.pdf (TENDER)

Evaluation uses the 80/20 preference point system: 80 points for price, 20 points for specific goals.

After price and preference scoring, responsive bidders undergo an arithmetic check and a risk assessment. A bidder must score at least 14 points in the risk assessment to be considered for award.

Risk assessment areas (each rated low/medium/high):

A: Technical qualifications and competence – key personnel CVs: contract manager with a built environment qualification and at least 5 years' experience in building works; OHS officer registered with SACPCMP; foreman with at least 5 years' experience in school sanitation and building.
B: Workload and capacity – current projects and their progress.
C: Reliability – at least three completed projects each valued at least R3,600,000, completed within 10% of the approved contract period in the past three years; at least two must be in the Eastern Cape.
D: Experience and reputation – at least three contactable references from similar sanitation/building projects completed in the past three years, each valued at least R3,600,000.
E: Price offered – must be market-related; significantly low prices are high risk.
F: Construction implementation plan – must cover human resource deployment, materials procurement, plant and equipment, quality control, detailed construction programme, and cash flow projections.

Bidders may be interviewed and asked for rate build-ups or additional information. Poor performance on previous contracts (e.g., completing more than 25% late, negative final accounts) disqualifies a bidder.
