Evaluation Criteria
Source: RFQ for RF Monitors.pdfEvaluation uses the 80/20 preference point system under the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act, 2000, and Regulations, 2017. Points are allocated as follows: 80 points for price, 20 points for B-BBEE status level. Bidders must first meet the minimum functionality score to proceed to price and preference evaluation. B-BBEE points are awarded based on the bidder’s status level (e.g., Level 1 = 20 points, Level 2 = 18 points, down to Non-compliant = 0). Failure to submit proof of B-BBEE status means no preference points are claimed. Price points are calculated using the formula: Ps = 80(1 - (Pt - Pmin)/Pmin), where Pt is the bid price and Pmin is the lowest acceptable bid price.
