For e-tendering, failure to upload documents renders the tender non-responsive. Mandatory returnables must be submitted by the closing date and time; documents identified as mandatory may not be submitted later. The Acknowledgement Form must be completed and submitted, stating whether the tender is for the whole or part of the works. Where an agent submits on behalf of a principal, an authenticated copy of the authority to act as agent must be included. The SDL&I Undertaking must be completed and submitted by contract award.

Evaluation stages: basic compliance, mandatory tender returnables, pre-qualification criteria (if stipulated), functionality (if applicable), then price and specific goals. A criterion is not measured twice across phases (no double dipping). Functionality: if functionality is a criterion, bidders must meet the minimum threshold stated in the Tender Data to proceed. Price evaluation: price is evaluated per the Tender Data, considering factors such as CPA, FOREX, commodity exposure, unconditional discounts, technical adjustment, PV and forecasted rates of invoicing. B-BBEE: scored from the CSD report or certificate/affidavit; if B-BBEE level is a pre-qualification criterion, proof must be at closing or the tender is disqualified. For PPPFA point allocation, if no B-BBEE certificate/affidavit is provided at closing, or it is fraudulent or expired, the tenderer scores zero for B-BBEE points but is not disqualified if otherwise responsive. Specific goals: scored with reference to supporting documentation; failure to meet specific goals or submit proof by closing results in zero points for specific goals within the 90/10 or 80/20 allocation, but not disqualification. Ranking: price score and specific goals score are added and suppliers ranked highest to lowest. Objective criteria: a contract may be awarded to a tenderer that did not score the highest points only in accordance with Section 2(1)(f) of the PPPFA, and objective criteria must be stipulated in the Invitation to Tender; functionality and B-BBEE scorecard elements may not be used as objective criteria. Reverse e-auction: if used, it will be indicated in the Invitation to Tender; bidders must submit a complete tender without prices, and any included prices will not be considered. Financial analysis: Eskom assesses the financial risk of doing business with the tenderer; if mitigating factors are insufficient or the risk is too high, the tenderer will not be considered for award. Arithmetical errors: errors are checked and corrected per the stated rules; the amount in words prevails over figures; failure to correct or accept corrections leads to rejection.

Scope: provision of building and infrastructure maintenance services at Gourikwa Gas Turbine Station on an as-and-when-required basis for a period of five (5) years. The tender is for construction-related services. Tenderers must not sub-contract 100% of the scope of work; a tender based on 100% sub-contracting is deemed ineligible and disqualified.

No further technical specifications, quantities, service levels or standards are stated in the source document.

Bidders must provide proof to Eskom's satisfaction that safety, health, environment and quality (SHEQ) systems, policies and capabilities are in place at the closing date and time or at contract award as stipulated.

Insurance: Eskom's insurance (if any) may not cover the full requirements; bidders should seek qualified advice. Security for performance: if required, the tenderer must indicate at least two financial institutions it is likely to approach for the required security; Eskom may reject an unsuitable institution. Financial analysis: Eskom will assess the financial risk of the tenderer; if the risk is too high or mitigating factors are insufficient, the tenderer will not be considered for award. Arithmetical errors in pricing schedules or bills of quantities are corrected per the stated rules; the amount in words prevails over figures. No specific bond or guarantee percentages are stated in the source document.

Eligibility: bidders must comply with eligibility criteria in the Tender Data and must not be under any restriction to do business with Eskom or State-Owned Companies. Tenderers must not sub-contract 100% of the scope of work. CSD registration: B-BBEE level is scored from the CSD report or certificate/affidavit; if B-BBEE level is a pre-qualification criterion, proof must be provided at closing or the tender is disqualified. CIDB: where CIDB grading is stipulated as a qualification criterion, bidders must be registered with the CIDB at closing or be capable of being registered within 21 working days from closing; proof of registration is mandatory at closing, or proof of application at closing with actual proof by contract award. SHEQ: bidders must provide proof of safety, health, environment and quality (SHEQ) systems, policies and capabilities; all SHEQ costs must be reflected in the tender. Legislation: bidders must comply with relevant legislation and regulatory instruments, including National Treasury Instruction Notes, CIDB Regulations, PPPFA Regulations, Amended B-BBEE Codes, COIDA, OHS Act, and Eskom's SHEQ requirements. Misrepresentation or falsification of information, including B-BBEE certificates or fronting, leads to disqualification, reporting to the B-BBEE Commission, suspension from doing business with State-Owned Companies for up to 10 years, and possible jail. SDL&I Undertaking: must be completed and submitted by contract award; failure means the tender will not be considered for award. Designated materials and thresholds: information must be submitted no later than contract award; failure means the tender will not be considered for award. Contract Skills Development Goals (CSDG): if awarded, the contractor must achieve CSDG per the CIDB Standard for Developing Skills through Infrastructure Contracts, applicable to contracts of 12 months or more and R5 million or more (for service contracts) or CIDB grade 7 or higher (for engineering and construction works). Contract Participation Goals (CPG): the contractor must achieve CPG relating to engagement of targeted enterprises per the CIDB standard, applicable to construction works contracts in General Building (GB) and Civil Engineering (CE) classes, with minimum project duration of 6 months, and where at least 25% of the main contract could reasonably be subcontracted out in CE, EB, GB or ME classes.

Bidders must comply with relevant legislation including the OHS Act and Eskom's requirements for Safety, Health, Environment and Quality (SHEQ). Proof of SHEQ systems, policies and capabilities must be provided to Eskom's satisfaction at the closing date and time or at contract award. All SHEQ costs and personnel must be reflected in the tender. No specific safety plan or HSE compliance details are stated in the source document.

Eskom may accept or reject any variation, deviation or alternative tender, and may accept the whole or any part of the tender. Eskom may cancel the tender at any time before contract conclusion, with written reasons on request. Eskom is not liable for any losses or damages arising from participation in the tender process. Eskom reserves the right to enter into mandated negotiations with selected tenderers. Tender validity: the tender must remain valid for the validity period stated in the Tender Data; Eskom may request an extension, and a tenderer that does not agree to extend is excluded from further consideration. Confidentiality: all matters arising in connection with the procurement must be treated as confidential; documents provided by Eskom may only be used for preparing and submitting the tender. Site visit and/or clarification meeting: if stipulated as compulsory, attendance is mandatory and failure results in disqualification. The successful tenderer must check the final draft of the contract and sign the contract documents. The contract will be revised to take account of addenda, returnables, and changes agreed in negotiations. No specific contract duration, termination or penalty clauses are stated in the source document beyond the five-year period in the tender title.

Evaluation follows the standard Eskom process: basic compliance, mandatory returnables, pre-qualification criteria, functionality (if applicable), then price and specific goals. No criterion is measured twice. Functionality, if used, requires meeting a minimum threshold stated in the Tender Data. Price is evaluated per the Tender Data, considering factors such as CPA, FOREX, commodity exposure, unconditional discounts, technical adjustment, PV and forecasted rates of invoicing. B-BBEE is scored from the CSD report or certificate/affidavit; if B-BBEE is a pre-qualification criterion, proof must be at closing or the tender is disqualified. For PPPFA point allocation, missing or invalid B-BBEE proof results in zero points but not disqualification. Specific goals are scored with supporting documentation; failure to meet them results in zero points but not disqualification. Ranking is by total of price and specific goals scores. Objective criteria may be used only as per Section 2(1)(f) of the PPPFA and must be stipulated in the Invitation to Tender; functionality and B-BBEE scorecard elements cannot be used as objective criteria. Reverse e-auction, if used, requires a tender without prices. Financial analysis assesses the risk of doing business with the tenderer; high risk or insufficient mitigating factors leads to exclusion from award. Arithmetical errors are corrected per the stated rules; the amount in words prevails over figures.
