Seeking a professional service provider for the management and implementation of the Rural Roads Asset Management System (RRAMS) for three years, focusing on data collection, analysis, and maintenance of rural road assets.
The Xhariep District Municipality is inviting bids for the appointment of a professional service provider to manage and implement the Rural Roads Asset Management System (RRAMS) over a three-year period. This project aims to enhance the management of the municipality's rural road network, which spans 760.46 km, by collecting and analyzing road and traffic data in compliance with the Road Infrastructure Strategic Framework for South Africa. The successful bidder will be responsible for maintaining the GeoRAMS system, conducting visual condition assessments, and ensuring that the data management processes align with national standards.
Key responsibilities include the training of civil engineering graduates, conducting traffic counts, updating road asset inventories, and preparing detailed reports for the municipality. The project will also involve collaboration with local municipalities and adherence to the Division of Revenue Act (DoRA) requirements. By improving data accuracy and asset management practices, this initiative aims to extend the lifespan of rural roads, reduce vehicle operating costs, and guide future infrastructure investments effectively.
This tender is suitable for consulting firms specializing in civil engineering, asset management, and data analysis, particularly those with experience in road infrastructure projects and a capacity to train local graduates.
