The government pensions administration agency (gpaa) requires a service provider to print and mail pensioner and member communications for a two-year period. The scope covers personalised letters, quarterly newsletters, tax certificates, pensioner cards, annual reports, member guides and marketing collateral, together with mailroom services such as barcode conversion, envelope insertion, sorting and delivery to the post office, plus pamms-certified address cleansing. Bidders must submit firm prices on sbd 3.1 For both years with escalation factors, and only firm prices will be accepted. The most consequential consideration is that pricing is a maximum budget ceiling: charges may be raised only for actual items printed and services performed, so unit rates must be accurate.
Submission method: electronic only, via the national treasury etender portal (www.etenders.gov.za). NO physical, emailed, hand-delivered or courier submissions accepted. Returnable forms (all must be completed, signed and uploaded): - sbd 1 (invitation to bid): bidder and contact details, signed as the offer cover page. - Sbd 4 (declaration of interest): discloses whether any director or shareholder is employed by the state or connected to anyone at the procuring institution. - Sbd 6.1 (Specific goals declaration): claims preference points for specific goals under the PPPFA 80/20 or 90/10 system. - Sbd 3.1 (Pricing schedule): must be uploaded as a separate file clearly labelled "pricing schedule (sbd 3.1)". Pricing schedule requirements: - complete the sbd 3.1 Excel schedule digitally on shaded rows, sign IT, and upload IT as a separate file. - An incomplete, unsigned, or partially signed pricing schedule (including missing initials or blank fields) will result in automatic disqualification. Disqualification risks: - late submissions: the etender portal automatically prevents uploads after the closing date and time. - Bidders are responsible for ensuring successful upload before closing; gpaa is not liable for failed uploads. - Failure to submit any required document may result in disqualification, though bidders may be given up to 2 working days to submit missing documents during administrative evaluation.
