The work covers one dining hall and accommodation rooms, with specific curtain, lace, rail and blind specifications, and requires a CIDB grading of 1gb or higher. The most consequential consideration is the compulsory briefing session on 12 november 2026 — failure to attend disqualifies the bid — and the strict 100% local content requirement for fabric material.
Compulsory briefing: attend on 12 November 2026 at 10:00 at the IBTC, Roodeplaat (GPS: Lat -25.618439°, Long 28.368786°); non-attendance disqualifies the bid.
Closing: submit sealed, endorsed envelope by 11:00 on 18 November 2026 to the bid box at Construction East Office Building, Mthatha Dam, Mthatha, 5900; late bids are rejected.
CIDB: must hold a grading of 1GB or higher and submit proof with the bid.
Local content: fabric material must be 100% locally produced; complete Annexure C and submit a letter from the local manufacturer; an exemption letter from the dtic is required for any imported items.
Mandatory forms: complete, sign and submit SBD 1, SBD 3.1 (fully priced), SBD 4, SBD 6.1, Annexure C, Annexures 1 and 2 (commissioner of oaths stamped), proof of address, valid COIDA certificate, and certified B-BBEE certificate or affidavit.
Evaluation: 80/20 preference points system; 20 points available for specific goals (women, disability, youth ownership, Gauteng location, B-BBEE level 1/2 EME/QSE); failure to submit proof for claimed goals forfeits those points.
Samples: bidders passing Phases 1–3 must submit samples of each type when requested by the department; approval is required to proceed to Phase 5.
