(2)(a) Tender S044/19 was cancelled on 22 September 2020, due to suspected tender irregularities by bidders.
(2)(b) The department had three scheduled maintenance contracts in place – S222/15, S223/15 and S001/16 which were used for the maintenance of schools.
- The Department has not identified a panel of contractors. Contractors who want to do business with the Western Cape Government, are required to register on the National Treasury’s Central Supplier Database, the Western Cape Supplier Database, as well as the CIDB’s Register of Contractors.
When the Department has identified the need for contractors for specific projects, the tender will be advertised as an open competitive bid, where all potential tenderers who meets the requirements can submit a bid. The selection of framework contractors is undertaken in the same way that normal bids are, i.e in terms of the highest point scoring as per the Preferential Procurement Regulations. The decision making on contractor appointments is informed by the outcomes of the risk assessment processes the department follows as per the procurement prescripts and as documented in the tender. Furthermore, the number of framework contractors is based on planned projects as well as budget availability of the department.
The number of contractors listed on the Western Cape Supplier Evidence Bank per CIDB grading is listed in the table below. Please note that suspended means that the supplier’s governance documents (such as their declaration of interest) has expired and the Western Cape Government are not allowed to do business with those suppliers until such time that the necessary documentation has been submitted and the suspension been lifted.
