Mopani tvet college seeks suppliers to provide laptops for students enrolled in national certificate (vocational) and occupational programmes across the college. The procurement follows a three-stage evaluation: mandatory compliance, functionality scoring, and price-and-preference assessment under the 80/20 system. The single most consequential consideration for bidders is the strict dual deadline structure — a payment cut-off on 23 october 2026 to obtain documents, followed by physical submission by 11:00 on 26 october 2026, with NO electronic submissions permitted.
Closing: 26 October 2026 at 11:00. Physical tender-box submission only at Corporate Centre Main Reception, Phalaborwa; no email, fax, or late submissions.
Document fee and cut-off: R 300.00 non-refundable; payment proof must reach [email protected] by 23 October 2026 at 12:30. Real-time proof of payment required showing date and time. EFT from non-ABSA banks must use immediate payment option.
Evaluation: 80/20 Preferential Point System (80 points price, 20 points specific goals). Stage 1 compliance is pass/fail; Stage 2 functionality has unstated minimum score in available text; failure at either stage disqualifies.
Mandatory submissions: CSD registration, valid SARS tax compliance status, B-BBEE certificate or sworn affidavit, and completed SBD forms 1, 4, 6.1, 6.2, 8, 9 plus Authority to Sign/Board Resolution.
Disqualification risks: listing on National Treasury Tender Defaulters or Restricted Suppliers registers; incomplete documents; missing signatures; missing mandatory supporting documents; failure to meet any Stage 1 compliance criterion.
Technical detail: quantities, specifications, models, and delivery locations are not in the advert — bidders must obtain the full tender document after payment to access these.
No compulsory briefing or site visit is stated.
