• Transnet accepts no liability for materials or stock the bidder orders or carries in anticipation of the contract.
• Delivery period is governed by the Terms and Conditions of Contract; the supplier may be required to submit periodic progress reports.
• Emergency demand: the supplier gets first right of refusal on short-notice requirements; if it cannot meet the critical delivery period, Transnet may buy elsewhere and the Total or Partial Failure to Perform the Scope of Supply provisions do not apply.

• Tender strictly to the drawings and specifications issued by Transnet unless an official amendment states otherwise.
• Samples, if required, must be marked with the bidder's name and address, bid number and item number and delivered by the closing date.

• Payment terms are set out in the Terms and Conditions of Contract. Alternative payment or financing proposals may be submitted with full particulars for evaluation, but the bidder must first tender strictly on the standard terms.

• Foreign remittance: Transnet may pay a foreign principal or manufacturer directly overseas on request. Rand-based agreements are preferred; forward exchange cover on the foreign currency portion is requested at a cost acceptable to Transnet. South African Reserve Bank approval is required before any foreign currency payment.
• Transnet may request a pro-forma or tax invoice to confirm compliance with the contract and the VAT Act.
• Default by the successful bidder (failure to sign the contract, accept the order, furnish security or meet any imposed condition) allows Transnet to accept another bid or re-invite bids and recover any additional expense from the defaulting bidder.

Returnable documents: every returnable document listed in the RFX must be submitted. Missing a mandatory returnable schedule or document results in disqualification; missing other schedules may also disqualify the bid.

• Bidder identification: companies must state the full names of directors; close corporations the full names of members; partnerships or sole traders the full names of partners or of the individual.
• Foreign bidders: a South African representative or agent must provide written proof of authorisation, failing which the bid is disqualified. A legal Power of Attorney is required for the representative to sign a contract on the principal's behalf; it must comply with Rule 63 of the Uniform Rules of Court, be signed by the principal under the same title used in the bid documents, and authorise the representative to choose the domicilium citandi et executandi. A certified copy is required if the Power of Attorney also covers general matters.

• Contract conditions: the supplier must accept the Terms and Conditions of Contract and any Special Conditions.

• Drawings required from the bidder must be submitted before the closing time and date; non-receipt may disqualify the bid.
