Stage 4: Evaluation of Price and Specific Goals
Only bidders who meet the functionality requirements, Stage 03 will be considered for the price and Specific
goals evaluation. Bids will be evaluated in accordance with the prescripts of the Preferential Procurement
Policy Framework Act (PPPFA) and its regulations which stipulate 80/20 Preference point system [(for
acquisition of goods or services for a Rand value equal to and below R50 million) (all applicable taxes
included).
To score points for specific goals bidders must submit a valid BBBEE certificate or affidavit. A trust,
consortium, or joint venture (including unincorporated consortia and joint ventures) must submit a
consolidated B-BBEE Status Level Verification Certificate.

Step 1: Calculation of points for price
i) The PPPFA prescribes that the lowest acceptable bid will score 80 or 90 points for price.
ii) Bidders that quoted higher prices will score lower points for price on a pro-rata basis.

80/20 Preference point system [(for acquisition of services, works or goods up to a Rand value
of R50 million) (all applicable taxes included)]
(Pt-Pmin)
PS = 80 [1 - ]
Pmin
Where:
Ps = Points scored for price of tender under consideration
Pt = Price of tender under consideration
Pmin = Price of lowest acceptable tender.
90/10 Preference point system [(for acquisition of services, works or goods with a
Rand value above R50 million) (all applicable taxes included)]
(Pt -Pmin) ]
PS = 90 [1 -
Pmin
Where:
Ps = Points scored for price tender under consideration
Pt = Price of tender under consideration
Pmin = Price of lowest acceptable tender.
iv) Points scored must be rounded off to the nearest 2 decimal places.
Step 2: Calculation of preferential procurement
i) Where the 80/20 preference point system for the acquisition of goods and services with a Rand
value equal to and below R50 million is applied, the following is applicable:
1. A maximum of 20 points may be awarded to a tenderer for the specific goal specified for the
tender.
2. The points scored for the specific goal must be added to the points scored for price and total
must be rounded off to the nearest two decimal places.
3. Subject to section 2(1)(f) of the PPPFA, the contract must be awarded to the tender scoring
the highest points.
ii) Where the 90/10 preference point system for the acquisition of goods and services with a Rand
value above R50 million is applied, the following is applicable:
1. A maximum of 10 points may be awarded to a tenderer for the specific goal specified for the
tender.
2. The points scored for the specific goal must be added to the points scored for price and total
must be rounded off to the nearest two decimal places.
3. Subject to section 2(1)(f) of the PPPFA, the contract must be awarded to the tender scoring
the highest points.
18.3 80/20 preference points system for tendered for income-generating contracts with a Rand
value equal to or below R50 million
1. The following formula must be used to calculate the points for price in respect of an
invitation for tender for income-generating contracts, with a Rand value equal to or
below R50 million, inclusive of all applicable taxes:
(Pt-Pmax)
PS = 80 [1 + ]
Pmax
Where:
Ps = Points scored for price of tender under consideration
Pt = Price of tender under consideration; and
Pmax = Price of highest acceptable tender
2. A maximum of 20 points may be awarded to a tenderer for the specific goal specified
for the tender.
3. The points scored for the specific goal must be added to the points scored for price
and the total must be rounded off to the nearest two decimal places.
4. Subject to section 2(1)(f) of the PPPFA, the contract must be awarded to the
tenderer scoring the highest points.
18.4 90/10 preference point system for tenders for income-generating contracts with a Rand value
above R50 million
1. The following formula must be used to calculate the points for price in respect of a
tender for income-generating contracts, with a Rand value above R50 million
inclusive of all applicable taxes:
(Pt-Pmax)
PS = 90 [1 + ]
Pmax
Where:
Ps = Points scored for price of tender under consideration
Pt = Price of tender under consideration; and
Pmax = Price of highest acceptable tender
2. A maximum of 10 points may be awarded to a tenderer for the specific goal specified
for the tender.
3. The points scored for the specific goal must be added to the points scored for price
and the total must be rounded off to the nearest two decimal places.
4. Subject to section 2(1)(f) of the PPPFA, the contract must be awarded to the
