Brand south africa requires a service provider to supply and deliver 18.9 Litre filtered water bottle refills and perform monthly cleaning and maintenance of four free-standing water coolers for a 12-month period. The service includes providing five additional bottles to supplement the ten already in brand sa's possession, with an estimated consumption of 15 bottles every four weeks. The contract is evaluated on an 80/20 preference point system, with 80 points for price and 20 points for specific goals (youth-owned and 100% women-owned). The most consequential consideration is that bidders must submit a csd report and sbd 6.1 Form to claim the 20 specific-goal points, otherwise they score zero for that component.
Closing: Submit by email to [email protected] no later than 26 October 2026 at 16:00.
Mandatory documents: SARS PIN or Tax Clearance Certificate, CSD report, completed and signed SBD forms (SBD 3, SBD 4, SBD 6.1), POPIA consent form, and quotation on company letterhead.
Specific goals: Claim 10 points for youth-owned and 10 points for 100% women-owned via SBD 6.1, with proof from the CSD report; missing either means zero points for specific goals.
Pricing: Complete SBD 3 with line prices VAT-exclusive and grand total VAT-inclusive; also provide a detailed cost breakdown on company letterhead.
Scope: Provide refills for 18.9 litre bottles (consumption 15 per four weeks), maintain 4 free-standing coolers with removable drip-trays, and supply 5 additional bottles to supplement the 10 already held.
