Evaluation Criteria
Source: Standard Bidding Document(SBD6.1).pdf (TENDER)The 80/20 preference point system applies (for requirements up to R50 million, all taxes included). Maximum points: 80 for price, 20 for specific goals. Price points are calculated using the formula Ps = 80(1 - (Pt - Pmin)/Pmin), where Pt is the tender price and Pmin is the lowest acceptable tender price. Specific goals and maximum points: Black ownership 10, Woman ownership 5, Youth ownership 3, Disability 2. Points for equity ownership are calculated as NEP = NOP x EP / 100, where NEP is points claimed, NOP is the maximum points for that goal, and EP is the percentage of total company ownership held by active directors or members who are registered owners. Bidders must provide proof for each claimed goal (e.g., certified ID, company registration, CSD report, medical certificate for disability). Failure to submit proof means no points are claimed for that goal. The organ of state may require substantiation of any claim at any time.
