Preference point system: 80/20 (price 80 points, specific goals 20 points)

Price formula: Ps = 80 × (Pmin / Pt), where Pmin is the lowest acceptable tender price

Specific goals (20 points maximum):

• EMEs and QSEs: 5 points
• Companies owned by black people: 5 points
• Companies owned by women: 5 points
• Companies owned by youth: 5 points
• Companies owned by people with disabilities: 5 points

• Companies owned by black people living in townships: 5 points

Specific goals scoring:

• EME: 100% of points allocated for each goal claimed
• QSE: 50% of points allocated for each goal claimed
• Formula: (share percentage × points allocated) / 100
• Points for each goal summed to final score out of 20

B-BBEE evidence: valid certified B-BBEE certificate or sworn affidavit required to claim specific goal points. Failure to submit scores 0 points for specific goals but does not invalidate the bid.

Subcontracting restriction: points forfeited if subcontracting more than 25% to any entity without equal or higher specific goal status, unless subcontractor is an EME with execution capability.

Market-related price check: highest-scoring tenderer may be required to negotiate to a market-related price. If agreement not reached, DSTI may negotiate with second or third highest scorer, or cancel the tender.

Tie-breaker: highest specific goal points wins; if still tied, decided by drawing of lots.

Note: DSTI may award to a non-highest scorer on reasonable and justifiable grounds.
