Five-year panel appointment for maintenance, minor construction and refurbishment of water and wastewater civil infrastructure. Bidders must hold CIDB grading 1CE/1GB or higher. Attendance at a virtual compulsory briefing is required.
Magalies Water, a state-owned business enterprise supplying treated bulk water to municipal, industrial and mine customers, has invited suitably qualified service providers to join a panel for the maintenance of water and wastewater civil infrastructure. The panel will run for five years and will cover routine maintenance, minor construction works and refurbishment of civil assets that support the utility's bulk water supply and wastewater systems. Appointed panel members will be called upon, on an as-and-when-required basis, to carry out work across the utility's infrastructure. The tender is governed by the Water Services Act 108 of 1997, the Public Finance Management Act 1 of 1991 and the Public Audit Act 25 of 2004, and the procurement process follows standard South African public sector requirements.
Eligibility is based on Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) grading. Bidders must hold a CE grading of 1 or higher and a GB grading of 1 or higher in the civil engineering and building categories respectively. The evaluation uses a functionality and preference points system, with a price weighting of 80 or 90 points and a specific goals weighting of 20 or 10 points, depending on the applicable value threshold. Bidders are advised to review the full tender document for the functionality criteria, the specific goals that attract preference points, and the mandatory returnable documents. Attendance at the virtual compulsory clarification briefing is a prerequisite for bidding. Interested parties must email tenders@magalieswater.co.za by 30 October 2026 at 16:00 to receive the meeting link, which will be distributed to prospective bidders on 1 November 2026.

For a panel contract such as this one, appointment offers a steady, multi-year pipeline of work for contractors with the right grading and capacity to deliver responsive maintenance on critical water infrastructure.
Civil engineering and construction contractors holding CIDB grading 1CE/1GB or higher, particularly those with experience in water and wastewater infrastructure, maintenance contracting, minor civil works and refurbishment. Suitable for established firms able to respond quickly to call-offs across a multi-year panel. Businesses that qualify for the specific goals preference points, such as those with strong B-BBEE credentials or qualifying ownership profiles, are well placed to benefit from the 10 or 20 point specific goals weighting. Firms without the required CIDB grading or without a presence able to support the North West region should assess their capacity carefully before bidding.
