ESKOM is procuring an assurance data analytics system that automates routine tasks, applies ai/ml to identify risks and patterns, and provides advanced analytics to enhance audit precision over a six-year contract. The tender requires completion of a tax and contractor-status questionnaire (evaluation pack a or b) to determine if the bidder is an independent contractor or a dependent contractor for paye purposes, with specific affidavits and codes. The most consequential consideration is correctly answering the questionnaire and signing the required appendices, as incorrect answers may trigger additional tax withholding or disclosure requirements.
Returnable documents: - e-tendering training acknowledgement form (annexure m): must be fully completed, signed, and submitted to ESKOM within the prescribed period. Failure to do so renders the tenderer non-responsive and disqualified from the procurement process.
