Design, development, delivery and editing of learning materials for mechatronics technician and rpa developer occupational qualifications

2.1 Mandate

The AIDC is the dedicated developmental agency of the Gauteng Growth and Development Agency

(GGDA) in relation to the specific industrial, infrastructure and training needs required by the

automotive and allied sector - those based in the Gauteng province. The AIDC is thus tasked by GGDA

with special developmental type projects aimed at enhancing and possibly expanding the automotive

and allied-related sector with a focus on enterprise development; also in the support of government’s

aims at BBBEE SMME development and the radical transformation of various townships. The AIDC

otherwise explores other developmental projects, external to the objectives of the GGDA in support

of the AIDC’s own business development processes. These include projects related to the transport

and energy sectors, as well the development of the Tshwane Auto City. The AIDC’s focus, in terms of

the 2016 Gauteng Economic Development Plan/Framework (GEDP/F), is towards the automotive

sector in the Northern Corridor of the Gauteng City Region (GCR) framework.

2.2 Vision

The Vision of the AIDC is:

To be the leading implementation agency delivering creative, efficient, best practice and value-based

solutions in support of government programmes related to the automotive and allied sectors.

2.3 Mission

The Mission of the AIDC, in pursuit of its Vision, is to provide innovative customised solutions:

To develop the automotive manufacturing sector to globally competitive standards of excellence

through a world-class value proposition which enables effective and sustainable socio-economic

growth.

• 3x EISA versions (Test 1/2/3) per qualification, for QCTO submission — each version of equal

standard and coverage, directly linked to the outcomes and standards in the QCTO curriculum

document and assessment specification. EISA must be signed off by assessor and moderator.

• Presentation Slides / Learning Resources — content directly linked to the modules and

outcomes in the QCTO curriculum document

• Independent Quality Assurance Review — the independent reviewer will physically review

all developed material components, verifying each against the Learning Material Matrix

(Form 4) and the QCTO curriculum document, and will flag any errors or non-conformances

identified, referring flagged items back to the supplier for correction. Conducted by a

reviewer independent of the material development team, in line with the RFQ requirement

for an independent learning material reviewer with a minimum of five (5) years' proven

experience. The independent reviewer must be available to attend three (3) meetings at

AIDC premises during the course of the engagement.

4.1 RFQ scope - overview

Design develop and deliver learning materials to the AIDC. Learning materials will be vetted by an

independent verifier. The AIDC will also conduct an internal audit of the learning materials where

identified errors and corrections will be rectified by the service provider.

Submit a detailed pricing proposal with firm prices in South African Rand (excl. VAT) as per the pricing schedule. Fully complete and sign SBD 4, SBD 6.1, and SBD 6.2. Quotes without or with not fully completed SBD 4 will not be considered; incomplete SBD 6.1 and 6.2 will score zero. Attach supporting documents for preferential procurement claims, including valid B-BBEE affidavit or SANAS accredited verification certificate, and SBD 6.2 with Annexure C where applicable. Submit CVs and certified qualifications (dated within the last six months) for the proposed SME and independent reviewer, plus a minimum of three reference letters on client letterhead. The successful contractor must submit a Safety File on appointment (for construction-related services).

Evaluation uses the 80/20 preferential point system as per the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act and PPR 2022. 80 points are assigned to price, and 20 points to specific goals. B-BBEE status level points: Level 1 – 20 points, Level 2 – 15 points, Level 3 – 10 points, Level 4 – 5 points. Bidders must complete SBD 6.1 in full to claim points; failure to do so results in a zero score for that goal.

Develop learning materials for two occupational qualifications: Occupational Certificate: Mechatronics Technician (SAQA ID 102004, NQF Level 5, 923 Credits) and Occupational Certificate: Robotic Process Automation (RPA) Developer (SAQA ID 119242, NQF Level 5, 185 Credits). For each qualification, deliver: Learner Guide, Facilitator Guide, Assessment Guide (Formative + Summative), Practical Module Step-by-Step Guide, Workplace Logbook and Guide, Learning Material Matrix (Form 4) + Programme Alignment Matrix, Moderator Guide, Portfolio of Evidence Guide, 3x EISA versions (Test 1/2/3) for QCTO submission, and Presentation Slides/Learning Resources. All content must be directly linked to the QCTO curriculum document and assessment specification. An independent quality assurance review is required, conducted by a reviewer independent of the development team, with a minimum of five years' proven experience, and the reviewer must attend three meetings.
