Submit bids in a sealed envelope marked with the project name (SCM/TSW/24/2025-2026) and number, deposited in the tender box at: 01 Bosman Street, Civic Centre, Bultfontein, 9670. The envelope must specify: bid number, closing date/time, and the name/address of the tenderer. Late, faxed, or emailed submissions are not accepted. Use only official bid forms provided; do not re-type. All returnable documents (Part T2) must be fully completed. Bids must be signed by an authorized signatory. No documents will be returned. Clarifications may be requested up to one week before the deadline. No contact with the municipality is permitted after submission until award. Bidders must not attempt to influence evaluation or award decisions. All bids are subject to the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act and related regulations. Prices must remain valid for 90 days from closing date.

Evaluation follows a 3-stage process: Stage 1 - Returnable compliance (mandatory documents), Stage 2 - Functionality (minimum 70/100 points required to proceed), Stage 3 - Price (80 points) and Specified Goals (20 points: Race, Gender, Disability, Youth). The 80/20 preference point system applies. Price scoring uses the formula: Np = 80[1 – (Pt – Pmin)/Pmin], where Pt is the bidder’s price and Pmin is the lowest responsive bid. Specific Goals points are awarded based on B-BBEE ownership levels (CSD report and ID copy required). If tied, the bid with the highest Specific Goals points wins; if still tied, the highest functionality score wins. Arithmetical errors are corrected per F.3.9. Non-responsive bids are rejected.
