The independent development trust requires a kaspersky next optimum security solution covering 250 nodes, comprising advanced endpoint detection and response with managed detection and response, a security awareness platform, a one-year maintenance agreement, and a 24×7 support SLA with 240 annual incidents. The bidder must be an authorised kaspersky gold or platinum partner with documentary proof. The single most consequential consideration is that this is an 80/20 preference-points RFQ where 20 points ride entirely on 100% ownership by designated groups — women, youth, people with disabilities, or black males — with zero points if the required certified ids or medical letters are missing.
Closing: 6 October 2026 at 12:00, email submission only to [email protected] — late submissions rejected.
Mandatory partnership: bidder must be a Kaspersky Gold or Platinum partner; Gold/Platinum authorisation letter required.
Specific goals under 80/20 system (20 points): women 100% ownership (6 pts), youth 100% ownership (6 pts), people with disabilities 100% ownership (4 pts), black male 100% ownership (4 pts); originally certified IDs or doctor's disability letter required per category — missing documents mean zero points for that goal.
Mandatory registrations and documents: valid CSD number, valid SARS tax compliance PIN with letter, CIPC company registration document, completed signed SBD 4, completed signed SBD 6.1.
Query cut-off: no queries accepted within 12 hours of closing; SCM queries to [email protected], technical queries to [email protected].
Price validity: minimum 30 days after closing date; VAT-inclusive total required with itemised breakdown at 15%.
