Supply and delivery of overhead lines labels and signage for central grid

Closing date: 2026-09-22 at 10:00 (from tender record). Exchange rate reference time: 12H00 on the date of tender advertisement. Base date for monthly indices: the month before the month in which the enquiry closes. Base price for daily/more frequent indices: average for the month before the enquiry closes. No compulsory briefing or site visit dates are mentioned.

Enquiries on foreign currency acceptability and CPA alignment must be directed to the NTCSA Procurement Practitioner (name, email, and phone not provided in this document). Customs and Excise documentation (SAD 500, Bill of Entry, customs release notification) is required for import payments. South African Reserve Bank (www.resbank.co.za) is the source for exchange rates.

Submission must include a Contract Price Adjustment (CPA) proposal aligned to NTCSA's proposed breakdown or an alternative CPA proposal for NTCSA's consideration. If no CPA proposal is submitted, pricing will be deemed fixed. Tenderers pricing in foreign currency must confirm the currency is acceptable to NTCSA via the Procurement Practitioner before tender close. Direct importer status is required for foreign currency pricing; proof of importation must be provided at payment. Tenderers must indicate the foreign currency and amounts at risk in the pricing schedule or a covering letter. Proof of the SARB exchange rate used (as at 12H00 on the advertisement date) must be submitted with the tender. Payment method selection (1A, 1B, 2, or Fixed ZAR) must be indicated and, where required, supported by SARB approval documentation submitted with the bid.

No explicit evaluation scoring, weightings, or minimum qualifying thresholds are stated in this document. The document governs CPA and foreign payment rules only. General NTCSA requirements (CSD registration, valid tax compliance status, B-BBEE compliance per PPPFA) apply but are not detailed here. Failure to submit a CPA proposal results in fixed pricing. Foreign currency tenders require prior currency acceptance confirmation and direct importer status. SARB approval is mandatory for Payment Method 1B.

Scope: Supply and delivery of overhead lines labels and signage for lines & servitude at Central Grid (from tender record). CPA breakdown: NTCSA proposes a local CPA formula (Formula A) with a minimum 15% fixed portion; tenderers must complete the index reference, weightings, description, source, base index figure, base month, and publisher for each index component (A1, A2, A3). Separate CPA formulae are required for local and foreign components; they may not be combined. Only official published public-domain indices may be used; in-house indices are prohibited. Multiple formulae (A, B, C) or combined cost components are permitted depending on pricing structure. For professional services, the preferred index is the country-specific CPI Headline index, averaged over the 12 months ending before each contract anniversary. Base date for monthly indices: month before enquiry closes; for daily indices: average of month before enquiry closes.

Two methodologies for specialist service engagements are described: 1) Secondment — foreign specialist remains employed by overseas employer, seconded to local company; salaries paid by foreign employer who invoices local supplier in foreign currency (typically EUR or GBP); short to medium term. Required documents: commercial invoice from specialist company, local invoice from SA company, specialist's passport and valid work permit, activity schedule signed by contract manager. 2) Payroll Transfer — specialist's overseas contract suspended, takes up local contract with SA company; remuneration in ZAR; no foreign invoice; long term preferred; no foreign commitment, contract in ZAR.

CPA applicability: contracts >12 months use CPA from year 2; ≤12 months require fixed price. Minimum 15% fixed portion in any CPA formula. Each formula totals 100%. No exchange rate adjustments in CPA. Local indices not allowed for imported components. Separate local and foreign CPA formulae required. NTCSA proposes Formula A for local goods/services with indices A1, A2, A3 and 15% fixed portion; tenderers must complete index details or refer to NEC/standalone pricing schedule. Multiple formulae permitted. Professional services use country-specific CPI Headline index averaged over 12 months before each anniversary. Base date: month before enquiry closes (monthly indices) or average of that month (daily indices). Foreign currency pricing: tenderer must confirm currency acceptability with Procurement Practitioner before close; must be direct importer; foreign currency and amounts at risk must be shown in pricing schedule or covering letter. Exchange rate: SARB rate at 12H00 on advertisement date; proof required. Four payment methods with distinct documentation requirements as detailed in financialRequirements.

Contract duration >12 months: CPA applies from year 2; first year fixed. Duration ≤12 months: fixed price offer required. Minimum 15% fixed portion in any CPA formula. Each CPA formula must total 100%. No rate-of-exchange adjustment allowed in CPA formulae. Local indices may not be used for imported components. Foreign currency pricing: tenderer must be direct importer; proof of importation required at payment. Domestic value-added costs paid in ZAR only. Exchange rate for tender: SARB rate at 12H00 on advertisement date; proof of rate required. Four payment methods: 1A (foreign bank account, foreign currency) — requires commercial invoice, SAD 500, Bill of Entry, customs release, transport documents; 1B (SARB-approved CFC account in SA, foreign currency) — requires SARB approval letters (initial and renewal), commercial invoice, local tax invoice (values must match), SAD 500, Bill of Entry, customs release, transport documents; 2 (ZAR at NTCSA Treasury spot rate on forward cover cancellation date) — requires written indemnity not to buy forward cover, commercial invoice, SAD 500, Bill of Entry, customs release, transport documents, local invoice; not applicable to services; prior NTCSA approval required before tender close. Fixed ZAR Option (Method 3): tenderer bears FX risk; NTCSA and tenderer compare bank rates simultaneously; tenderer must match or better NTCSA rate; foreign currency amounts must be shown in pricing schedule or covering letter; proof of importation required at payment. Service-related payments: Secondment — commercial invoice from specialist, local invoice, passport and valid work permit, activity schedule signed by contract manager; Payroll Transfer — contract in ZAR, no foreign commitment. All submitted documents must be unaltered originals.

CSD registration, valid SARS tax compliance status (TCS/tax pin), and B-BBEE compliance per PPPFA are standard NTCSA requirements (not detailed in this annexure). Direct importer status mandatory for any foreign currency pricing. SARB approval required for Payment Method 1B (CFC account) and for service-related foreign currency payments. CPA formulae must use only official published public-domain indices; in-house indices prohibited. Minimum 15% fixed portion in CPA formula. Separate local and foreign CPA formulae required. Proof of SARB exchange rate used at submission. Proof of importation (SAD 500, Bill of Entry, customs release, transport documents) required at invoicing. Commercial invoices must be unaltered originals from the foreign supplier (country of origin). For Payment Method 1B, commercial and local tax invoice values must match; no profit paid in foreign currency. For Fixed ZAR Option, tenderer must provide written indemnity not to purchase forward cover.
