Sbd 9
Certificate of independent bid determination
1 This Standard Bidding Document (SBD) must form part of all bids1 invited.
2 Section 4 (1) (b) (iii) of the Competition Act No. , as amended, prohibits an agreement between, or concerted practice
by, firms, or a decision by an association of firms, if it is between parties in a horizontal relationship and if it involves collusive
bidding (or bid rigging).2 Collusive bidding is a pe se prohibition meaning that it cannot be justified under any grounds.
3 Treasury Regulation 16A9 prescribes that accounting officers and accounting authorities must take all reasonable steps to prevent
abuse of the supply chain management system and authorizes accounting officers and accounting authorities to:
a. disregard the bid of any bidder if that bidder, or any of its directors have abused the institution’s supply chain
management system and or committed fraud or any other improper conduct in relation to such system.
b. cancel a contract awarded to a supplier of goods and services if the supplier committed any corrupt or fraudulent
act during the bidding process or the execution of that contract.
4 This SBD serves as a certificate of declaration that would be used by institutions to ensure that, when bids are considered,
reasonable steps are taken to prevent any form of bid-rigging.
5 In order to give effect to the above, the attached Certificate of Bid Determination (SBD 9) must be completed and submitted
with the bid:
1 Includes price quotations, advertised competitive bids, limited bids and proposals.
2 Bid rigging (or collusive bidding) occurs when businesses, that would otherwise be expected to compete, secretly conspire to raise
prices or lower the quality of goods and / or services for purchasers who wish to acquire goods
and / or services through a bidding process. Bid rigging is, therefore, an agreement between competitors not to compete.
