Specification: supply and fit 2 × 420/85 R24 BKT RT855 tyres or similar, plus delivery (1); the completed specification list must have every box ticked and any deviation must be stated, failing which the quotation is disqualified and not scored on price or specific goals.
CSD and tax: only bidders registered on the Central Supplier Database are considered — submit the CSD registration number and full CSD report, plus a valid SARS tax compliance pin and a valid B-BBEE certificate.
Returnables: company registration documents (CK certificate), signed SBD forms (SBD 6.1 preference claim and the bidder's disclosure), and supplier details with company name, contact person, contact number, email, date and signature; unsigned or missing SBD forms may disqualify the bid.
Evaluation: 80/20 system for quotations from R2,000 to below R50,000,000 including VAT — 80 points for the lowest acceptable price and 20 points for specific goals (HDI ownership 51%+ = 6, women 51%+ = 4, youth 51%+ = 4, persons with disabilities 51%+ = 2, B-BBEE Level 1–4 = 2, SMME promotion = 2); points are only scored if claimed and supported by proof.
