Johannesburg water requires a suitably qualified service provider to service, clean, sanitise and maintain 18 sanitary she bins per collection over 22 fortnightly collections, and to remove and dispose of the sanitary waste at ablution facilities and operational premises in the deep south region, based at ennerdale depot. The work must comply with municipal bylaws and the national environmental management: waste act, and the quotation must be accompanied by hazardous-waste registration, transportation authorisation, a waste facility agreement and an emergency preparedness plan. Quotations close at 16:00 on 18 november 2026 and must be submitted through the etenders portal as a pdf on company letterhead, with all applicable taxes included. Evaluation is on the 80/20 preference point system, with 20 points reserved for the specific goal of a business owned by 51% or more black people.
Closing and submission: 18 November 2026 at 16:00 through the eTenders portal (https://www.etenders.gov.za/); late quotations are not accepted. Quotations must be PDF on company letterhead — MS Word, MS Excel and picture files are rejected.
No compulsory briefing: the briefing session venue, date and time are recorded as not applicable, so no attendance requirement applies.
Waste compliance pack is mandatory with the quotation and omission disqualifies: GDARD hazardous waste registration certificate, GDARD transportation authorisation, agreement with the waste disposal facility, an example monthly safe disposal certificate or weighbridge slips, and an emergency preparedness plan. A waste manifest or safe disposal slip must follow each disposal once appointed.
B-BBEE and preference points: 20 specific-goal points are claimed only for a business owned by 51% or more Black people, proven by a SANAS-accredited B-BBEE certificate or a DTI/CIPC certificate; a sworn affidavit that does not comply with the B-BBEE Practice Guide scores zero.
Compulsory returnables: valid tax clearance certificate or SARS tax compliance PIN, CSD registration proof with the MAAA supplier number, lease agreement or municipal account statement not older than 3 months and not in arrears for more than 90 days, CIPC registration with ID copies of all directors and shareholders, MBD 3.1, MBD 4, MBD 6.1, MBD 8, MBD 9 and the POPIA consent form. Bidders in the service of the state, and bidders blacklisted by National Treasury or any national authority for non-performance, are excluded.
Pricing: firm prices only on MBD 3.1 — non-firm prices and exchange-rate-variable prices are not considered. The total must include all applicable taxes (VAT shown at 15%); omitting any applicable tax leads to disqualification. Delivery costs must be built into the price and the offer stays valid for 60 days from the closing date.
Scope and quantities: 18 bins per collection, 22 fortnightly collections, plus one once-off safety file; the Bill of Quantities or specification must be completed in full and brand names given where required, failing which the quotation is rejected.
