Supply, manufacturing and delivery of 1000nb test flanges for the clanwilliam dam project in the western cape. The department of water and sanitation construction south requires firm-priced bids with full technical compliance to section 3.2.14 Specifications. The single most consequential consideration is the 80/20 preference-points system, where 20 points for specific goals — women, disability and youth ownership, western cape location, and b-bbee level 1–2 status — can outweigh a moderate price disadvantage, but only if all mandatory administrative documents and proof are submitted by the deadline.
Closing: 22 October 2026 at 11:00, physical submission to bid box at Clanwilliam Dam Site Training Centre entrance, Old N7 Route (coordinates 32°11'47.99''S, 18°52'34.96''E).
Mandatory returnable forms: SBD 1 (signed cover page), SBD 3.1 (firm pricing schedule), SBD 4 (interest declaration), SBD 6.1 (preference points claim), Annexure C (local content declaration).
Tax and registration: SARS TCS PIN and Tax Clearance letter; active CIPC certificate; CSD registration report. If no TCS PIN, CSD number accepted.
B-BBEE: Original or certified SANAS-accredited B-BBEE Status Level Verification Certificate, or qualifying sworn affidavit for EME/QSE. Failure to submit forfeits all 20 preference points.
COIDA: Valid Letter of Good Standing with Compensation Commissioner or FSB-registered third-party insurance.
Signatory authority: Letter of appointment with proof — board resolution certified by chairman for companies, or individual authorisation.
Local content: Minimum DTIC threshold percentages apply to valves/actuators, steel products and construction components; Annexure C must be completed.
Evaluation: Four-phase sequential process — mandatory requirements, administrative compliance, technical specification compliance (Section 3.2.14), then 80/20 preference points. Any phase failure disqualifies the bid.
Preference points (20 maximum): Women ownership 5, disability ownership 5, youth ownership (≤35 years) 5, Western Cape location 2, B-BBEE level 1–2 (QSE or EME) 3. Proof documents required for every claim; missing proof means zero points for that goal.
Performance security: Bank guarantee, irrevocable letter of credit or certified cheque required within 30 days of award notification; amount specified in Special Conditions of Contract.
Contacts: Bidding procedure — F. Groenewald / R. de Wee, [email protected] / [email protected]; Technical — B. van Heerden, [email protected].
