Mandatory tender returnables: A tender that does not include mandatory documents or information as stipulated and by required deadlines will be deemed non-responsive.

Evaluation follows a staged process: basic compliance, mandatory returnables, pre-qualification criteria (if any), functionality (if applicable), then price and B-BBEE scoring under the PPPFA. Tenderers must meet the minimum functionality threshold stated in the Tender Data to be evaluated further. Price is evaluated per the Tender Data, considering factors such as CPA, FOREX, commodity increases, discounts, NPV, and forecasted invoicing rates. B-BBEE level is scored from the CSD report or certificate/affidavit; if B-BBEE is a pre-qualification criterion, proof must be provided at submission or the tender is disqualified. For PPPFA point allocation, a missing, expired, or fraudulent B-BBEE certificate results in zero points but not disqualification (if otherwise responsive).

Tenderers must not sub-contract 100% of the scope of work; such tenders are ineligible. Eskom may reject a tender if financial risk is deemed too high after financial analysis. Tenderers must not misrepresent or falsify information; fraudulent B-BBEE certificates or fronting will be reported and may lead to suspension from business with state-owned companies for up to 10 years.

Tenderers must provide reasonable proof that SHEQ systems, policies, and capabilities are in place at contract award; all SHEQ costs and personnel must be reflected in the tender. The SD&L (Supplier Development & Localisation) Undertaking must be completed and submitted by contract award; failure to do so means the tender will not be considered for award.

amount due

• the Price for each lump sum item in the Price Schedule which the Supplier

has completed,

• where a quantity is stated for an item in the Price Schedule, an amount

calculated by multiplying the quantity which the Supplier has completed by

the rate,

• plus other amounts to be paid to the Supplier,
• less amounts to be paid by or retained from the Supplier.

Clause 53.1 states: “Information in the Price Schedule is not Goods Information”. This confirms that

instructions to do work or how it is to be done are not included in the Price Schedule but in the Goods

Information. This is further confirmed by Clause 20.1 which states, “The Supplier Provides the Goods and

Services in accordance with the Goods Information”. Hence the Supplier does not Provide the Goods and

schedule;

• Included in his Prices and rates for correction of Defects (core clause 43.1) as there is no

compensation event for this unless the Defect is due to a Supplier’s risk;

• Spread the cost of doing work he chooses not to list as separate items in the price schedule

across other Prices and rates in order to fulfil the obligation to Provide the Goods and Services for

the tendered total of the Prices;

quantity, of work within that lump sum item later turns out to be different to that which the Supplier

estimated at time of tender. The only basis for a change to the Prices is as a result of a

compensation event per clause 60.1;

An on-site verification will be conducted; if evidence is not available during the on-site evaluation, points are reduced accordingly. Part B scoring: experience (35% weight) – more than 2 years (10 points), more than 1 year (5 points), 0 years or not meeting requirements (0 points); written references (35% weight) – 3 references (10 points), 2 references (7.5 points), 1 reference (5 points), 0 references (0 points); delivery vehicles (30% weight) – proof of 2 vehicles (10 points), proof of 1 vehicle (5 points), no proof (0 points).

Bidders must provide proof of the quality of the bulk water, such as lab test results showing the water meets the requirements. No evidence supplied means no points awarded for this criterion.

Minimum qualifying score for Part B: 75%. Part A mandatory criteria must be met at 100%. Bidders must provide proof of bulk water quality via lab test results.
