Mopani tvet college seeks a service provider to render cleaning services across five sites — phalaborwa campus, sir val duncan campus, old and new mosate hotel school, and hoedspruit hotel school — for 36 months. The tender uses the revised 80/20 preferential point system (80 price, 20 specific goals). Bidders must purchase electronic tender documents for r300 by 23 october 2026, submit sealed hard copies to the phalaborwa tender box by 26 october 2026 at 11:00, and achieve the unstated minimum functionality score to avoid automatic disqualification. The highest-risk consideration is the tight procurement timeline: only 24 days between document release and closing, with a hard cut-off for document issuance six days before the bid deadline.
Closing: 26 October 2026 at 11:00. Sealed documents only, deposited into the tender box at Corporate Centre Main Reception, Cnr Combretum & Haarlem Street, Phalaborwa (Mon–Thu 07:30–16:30, Fri 07:30–13:30). No electronic or fax submissions.
Document purchase deadline: 23 October 2026 at 12:30. R300 non-refundable fee via EFT/direct deposit to ABSA 632005, account 405 485 1998; email real-time proof of payment to [email protected]. Documents released only after payment confirmation.
Functionality minimum score: unstated in advert; bidders must obtain full tender pack to determine threshold. Failure to meet it disqualifies the bid regardless of price.
B-BBEE evidence required for 20 specific-goals points under 80/20 system; exact level thresholds and point allocation not stated in advert.
Mandatory exclusions: bidders on National Treasury Register for Tender Defaulters or Register of Restricted Suppliers are automatically disqualified.
Standard mandatory documents: CSD registration, SARS tax clearance certificate or tax PIN, fully completed and signed SBD/MBD forms, all supporting documents listed in tender pack. Incomplete bids are non-responsive.
No CIDB grading required; no local content percentage specified in advert; no bid security or performance bond mentioned.
