The national lotteries commission requires a catering service provider to supply and deliver meals for two education and awareness workshops in the eastern cape, on 17 november 2026 at kwamaqoma town hall (200 delegates) and 24 november 2026 at nqamakwe trc hall (110 delegates). The menu includes two starches, two meats, two vegetables, two salads, bottled still water and one fruit juice or soft drink per person, with the bidder supplying all cutlery, plates, tablecloths, cups and serviettes and removing waste after service. Bids are evaluated under the 80/20 preference point system, with 80 points for price and 20 points for specific goals (black, black women, black youth and disability ownership). The most consequential consideration is that bidders must be registered on the csd, be tax compliant, and submit all mandatory documents including sbd 1, sbd 4, sbd 6.1, A popia consent form, a b-bbee certificate or sworn affidavit, and proof of residence in the eastern cape, or risk disqualification.
Closing: 13 November 2026 at 11:00, submitted by email to [email protected] and [email protected]; late or incomplete submissions are rejected.
No briefing session; the two catering events are on 17 November 2026 (KwaMaqoma Town Hall, 50 Campbell Street, KwaMaqoma/Fort Beaufort, 200 delegates) and 24 November 2026 (Nqamakwe TRC Hall, Nqamakwe, 110 delegates), lunch at 12:00 both days.
Mandatory documents: signed SBD 1, SBD 4, SBD 6.1, POPIA consent form, B-BBEE certificate or sworn affidavit (EMEs/QSEs), full CSD report with SARS tax compliance status, valid proof of residence from a local municipality in the Eastern Cape, and a fully completed pricing quotation; any omission leads to disqualification.
CSD registration is compulsory and must be maintained for the contract duration; bidders must attach their CSD registration number and summary report and be tax compliant at submission and throughout the contract.
Evaluation uses the 80/20 preference point system: 80 points for price (lowest acceptable bid formula) and 20 points for specific goals – black ownership (100% = 8, 51–99% = 4), black women ownership (100% = 4, 30–99% = 2), black youth ownership (100% = 4, 30–99% = 2), disability ownership (20%+ = 4, 10–20% = 2, doctor's letter required).
Bids must be in PDF format protected from modification, with financial/pricing information in a separate attachment from the technical/functional response; mark the submission with bidder name, RFQ number and title.
Quotation validity is 60 days from closing; no services may be rendered before an official NLC purchase order is issued; bidders must not be involved in more than one bid for this RFQ and must not be listed on the Register for Tender Defaulters or List of Restricted Suppliers.
