Evaluation Criteria
Source: Eskom_-_Standard_Conditions_of_Tender_-_30_January_2025_(G20_Logo).pdf (TENDER)Evaluation follows stages: basic compliance, mandatory returnables, pre-qualification criteria (if any), functionality (if applicable), financial analysis, price, and preference points. Functionality: if used, bidders must meet the minimum threshold stated in the Tender Data to proceed. Price is evaluated per the Tender Data, considering factors such as CPA, FOREX, commodity exposure, unconditional discounts, technical adjustment, PV and forecasted invoicing rates. Preference points: B-BBEE level is scored from the CSD report or certificate/affidavit; if no proof is provided at closing, the bidder scores zero for PPPFA points but is not disqualified (unless B-BBEE is a pre-qualification criterion). Specific Goals: if not met or proof not submitted by closing, the bidder scores zero for Specific Goals within the 90/10 or 80/20 allocation. Ranking: price score plus Specific Goals score, ranked highest to lowest. Eskom will not measure a criterion twice (no double dipping). Objective criteria under Section 2(1)(f) of the PPPFA may be applied only if stipulated in the Invitation to Tender; functionality and B-BBEE scorecard elements cannot be used as objective criteria. Reverse e-auction may be used if indicated; if used, the tender must not contain prices.

B-BBEE: Proof of B-BBEE level (certificate, CSD number, or CSD report) must be provided at closing if it is a pre-qualification criterion; otherwise, missing proof results in zero PPPFA points. Fraudulent or expired B-BBEE documents lead to disqualification. CIDB: If CIDB grading is a qualification criterion, bidders must be registered with the CIDB at closing or be capable of registration within 21 working days; proof of registration is mandatory at closing, or proof of application must be submitted at closing and actual proof by contract award. SHEQ: Bidders must provide proof that safety, health, environment and quality (SHEQ) systems, policies and capabilities are in place at closing or contract award; all SHEQ costs must be reflected in the tender. SDL&I Undertaking: Must be completed and submitted by contract award; failure to do so 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. Proof of authority: If an agent submits on behalf of a principal, an authenticated copy of the authority must be submitted as a returnable. Compliance with legislation: Bidders must comply with National Treasury instructions, CIDB regulations, PPPFA, B-BBEE Codes, COIDA, OHS Act, and Eskom's SHEQ requirements.
