Evaluation is a two-stage process: 1) Mandatory Technical Evaluation (Pass/Fail). Failure to meet any mandatory criteria (e.g., D8 dozer access, ECSA PrEng registration, local MV motor repair/testing capability, motor manufacturer track record) disqualifies the tender. 2) Qualitative Technical Evaluation for compliant tenders, scored on a 0, 2, 4, or 5 scale (0=Totally Deficient/Non-Responsive, 2=Non-Compliant, 4=Compliant with Acceptable Qualifications, 5=Compliant). Minimum threshold for functional acceptability is 70%. Criteria include mechanical works (34%), electrical works (34%), and general requirements (32%), with sub-criteria for deviations, method statements, workshop capacity, motor design, programme, team experience, and supervisor qualifications.

Scope: Upgrade extendable conveyors 14 and 24 at Matimba Power Station to dual 250 kW drives, including design and construction of a new conveyor head. Key deliverables: 1) Modified conveyor drives to handle increased torque/power for belt extension and movement; 2) New conveyor head accommodating dual drives; 3) Method statements for installation of upgraded motors and gearboxes; 4) Data sheets for motors (per Technical Schedule A&B sections 3.1.1–3.1.4) and aluminium engraved plant labelling. Acceptable risks: Value engineering proposals, non-substantive changes, or technical deviations that improve quality/cost/time. Unacceptable risks: Incorrect/supplied motors/gearbox, no project plan, lack of workshop/manufacturing facility, or missing/incomplete method statements.

Mandatory: 1) ECSA PrEng (Mechanical/Civil) registration for conveyor head designers; 2) Proof of local factory capable of MV induction motor repair/testing (may be assessed pre-award); 3) Motor manufacturer must submit completed Technical Schedule A&B and prove a 10+ year track record for similar MV motors; 4) Workshop and manufacturing facility capacity declarations, including outsourcing percentage if applicable. Implied: CSD registration and B-BBEE compliance (minimum Level 3).

Evaluation consists of two stages: Mandatory Technical Evaluation and Qualitative Technical Evaluation. Mandatory criteria include: proof of D8 dozer access, ECSA PrEng registration for designers, local factory capability for MV motor repair/testing, manufacturer track record for 3.3kV motors, and submission of completed Technical Schedule A&B. Failure to meet any mandatory criterion disqualifies the tender. Qualitative evaluation uses a scoring system of 0, 2, 4, or 5 points per criterion (0=Totally Deficient/Non-Responsive, 2=Non-Compliant, 4=Compliant with Acceptable Qualifications, 5=Compliant). Minimum threshold for functional acceptability is 70% in the qualitative stage. Criteria are weighted across Mechanical Works (34%), Electrical Works (34%), and General Requirements (32%).
