Post-evaluation, tenderers have 7 working days to resubmit missing SHEQ requirements. If unresolved, mitigating factors may be negotiated or the tender may be awarded to another bidder. Refer to attached safety evaluation criteria.

Property must comply with the Environmental Conservation Act 1989. Specifically, the building must be away from busy/high-traffic roads and railways to avoid nuisance noise. Asbestos-free certification is mandatory; if asbestos is present, proof of removal must be provided. Mandatory certificates: Valid Occupancy Certificate, Electrical COC, Approved Building Plans/As-Built Drawings, Building Equipment/Plants Maintenance Plan.

Tenderers are ineligible if: on international sanctions lists, submit multiple tenders (except for E-Tendering size limits), JV/consortium without joint and several liability, conflict of interest, unauthorised signatories, restricted by National Treasury, on Tender Defaulters list, or subcontract 100% of the Scope of Work. Contractual requirements (e.g., SHEQ, CSD, B-BBEE) are assessed post-evaluation. Failure to meet contractual requirements may result in non-award. Offer to purchase agreement will be the binding document. Eskom legal department will vet prior to final sign-off.

Evaluation is structured in 4 stages: 1) Basic Compliance (eligibility, submission format). 2) Mandatory Returnables (disqualifiable and non-disqualifiable documents). 3) Functionality: Phase 1 (Desktop Evaluation, 100% score, 70% threshold) and Phase 2 (Site Inspection, 100% score, 70% threshold). 4) Price and Preference: 80/20 or 90/10 system based on tender value. Specific Goals (B-BBEE) scored out of 20 or 10 points. Highest total points win. SBD 6.1 and B-BBEE proof are mandatory for scoring but non-submission results in 0 points.

The tender involves the acquisition of a commercial property in Vosloorus or Roodekop areas, with a focus on structural integrity, safety, and compliance with SANS standards.

The property must meet the following structural and safety conditions:

• Walls must be in good condition: no concrete spalling, shrinkage cracking, or settlement cracking.
• No cracks should be merely plastered and painted, allowing crack lines to continue spreading.
• No rusted steel should protrude from concrete structures.
• No visible structural problems (e.g., plaster cracks, patches on concrete spalling) requiring urgent attention.
• Steel trusses bolted onto concrete columns/walls must not be dislodged.
• Coffer slab, steel concrete trusses on the roof, and steel/concrete beams must be in good condition with no signs of deterioration.
• Building load capacity must match floor/wall/column design capacity (supported by a structural engineering report).
• Construction or steel concrete joints and sealants must be in good condition, using SANS-approved sealants (e.g., Sikaflex).
• Roof must be leak-free with no holes.
• Roof drainage must show no signs of water puddles, physical damage, or structural deformation.
• Adequate stormwater management must be in place (e.g., perimeter sloping, trenches controlling water flow).
• No visible foundation dampness due to stormwater seepage.
• Stormwater gratings must be present and free of clogging.
• An apron slab must exist on the building perimeter.
• An existing earth drain must be present for stormwater run-off from the building embarkment.
• Stormwater pipes must not discharge into garden areas near the building perimeter.
• Stormwater inlets must not be blocked due to eroding or unavailability of earth drains.

Quality requirements include:

• Construction or steel concrete joints and sealants must be in good condition, using SANS-approved sealants (e.g., Sikaflex).
• No visible structural problems (e.g., plaster cracks, patches on concrete spalling) requiring urgent attention.
• Steel trusses, coffer slabs, and steel/concrete beams must be in good condition with no signs of deterioration.
• Building load capacity must match design capacity (supported by a structural engineering report).

The property must comply with the following safety and standards:

• All physically attached pipelines (fuel/water), electrical switchgears, conveyor belts, rotating levers, chain drivers, emergency stop buttons, and low doorways/structures must be color-coded according to SANS specifications.
• All nip-points must be adequately guarded for maximum safety, positive protection, and prevention of access to points of action.
• Plumbing works must be in good condition, with no rusted pipes or visible green droplets from taps.

Safety requirements include:

• Electrical switchgears, conveyor belts, rotating levers, chain drivers, emergency stop buttons, and low doorways/structures must be color-coded per SANS specifications.
• All nip-points must be guarded to ensure maximum safety and prevent access to points of action.
• Plumbing works must be in good condition, with no rusted pipes or visible green droplets from taps.

Environmental and stormwater management requirements include:

• Roof must be leak-free with no holes.
• Adequate stormwater management must be in place (e.g., perimeter sloping, trenches controlling water flow).
• No visible foundation dampness due to stormwater seepage.
• Stormwater gratings must be present and free of clogging.
• An apron slab must exist on the building perimeter.
• An existing earth drain must be present for stormwater run-off.
• Stormwater pipes must not discharge into garden areas near the building perimeter.
• Stormwater inlets must not be blocked due to eroding or unavailability of earth drains.

Scoring is based on a technical inspection checklist. Points are awarded as follows:

• 2.5% for every 'Yes' response to line items: 1, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20.
• 2.5% for every 'No' response to line items: 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, 12, 16, 17, 18.

Mandatory returnable: Fully complete and submit the E-Tendering Training Acknowledgement Form to Eskom within the prescribed period. Failure to do so will result in disqualification from the procurement process.
