The department of public works and infrastructure requires a professional construction health and safety agent (pr chsa) to provide services for the replacement of roofs and associated damages at the ladybrand magistrate office (wcs 057020). The agent must monitor compliance with all built environment related acts under the construction regulations 2014 of the OHS act. The single most consequential consideration is that this is a nominated tender with compulsory attendance at a clarification meeting whose details are not yet specified — bidders must proactively confirm with the project manager or risk automatic disqualification for non-attendance.
Closing: 23 October 2026 at 11:00. Submit original to Ground Floor Tender Box, 18 President Brand Street, Bloemfontein; envelope must show quotation number PSB26/008, WCS 057020, and "Quotation for Health & Safety Agent Services".
Compulsory clarification meeting: Attendance is mandatory but date, venue and time are not stated in the document — contact Mr Mosuwe Maboea immediately to obtain details; non-attendance renders the tender unacceptable.
Professional registration: Practice must be under full-time supervision of a SACPCMP-registered Pr CHSA; at least one principal must hold NEBOSH International General Construction Health & Safety Certificate or higher qualification; certified registration certificates with numbers required for all principals and key personnel.
Key person: At least one Pr CHSA must be listed in schedule C1.2.3 clause 7.1.2; CVs, certified IDs and company organogram required for all principals and staff.
Professional indemnity insurance: Proof at level specified in Contract Data clause 5.4.1 must be confirmed in C1.2.3; unconfirmed insurance = unacceptable risk and disqualification.
Risk assessment: Five technical risk criteria (experience, performance, human resources, insurance, clarification attendance) and commercial risk criteria (financial viability); failure on any single criterion renders tender unacceptable.
Preference points: Specific goals apply on 80/20 or 90/10 basis depending on value band; up to R1m and R1m-R50m bands offer 20 points (10 black ownership ≥51%, 2 Free State local, 4 black women ≥51%, 2 black disability ≥51%, 2 black youth ≥51%); above R50m band offers 10 points with adjusted weightings; SANAS-accredited B-BBEE certificate or sworn affidavit required to claim points.
