Refurbishment of Student Nurses' Accommodation

Ulundi, Kwazulu-natal Public Works
Open Closing: 8 Dec 2026 at 11:00 Published: 3 Nov 2026

Overview

Summary

Refurbishment and upgrade of student nurses' accommodation at Ceza Hospital for the Department of Health. Requires CIDB construction grading 8GB or higher and a 22-calendar-month contract period.

Detailed Description

The Department of Health, through the Department of Public Works as buyer, is seeking a contractor for the proposed refurbishment and upgrade of student nurses' accommodation at Ceza Hospital. The project involves improving existing residential facilities that house nursing students training at the hospital, with the aim of restoring the buildings to a safe, functional, and habitable standard. The works fall under the construction of buildings category and cover refurbishment and upgrade activities rather than new construction.

Bidders must hold a valid CIDB construction registration with a grading of 8GB or higher, which indicates the financial capacity and technical competence required for a project of this scale. The contract period is 22 calendar months from the date of appointment, so bidders should confirm that their programme, resourcing, and cash flow can sustain a project of this duration. Because the supporting document pack (Ceza Hospital.zip) could not be extracted for this summary, the detailed scope of works, technical specifications, drawings, bills of quantities, compliance requirements, and any site inspection arrangements should be verified directly in the tender documents before bidding.

For contractors, this opportunity offers a substantial public-sector building contract in a healthcare setting, with the potential for repeat work and the development of a track record with the Department of Health and Public Works. Successful bidders will contribute to improved living conditions for healthcare trainees, supporting the national objective of building a skilled nursing workforce. The tender is published with a closing date of 8 December 2026, and the status is currently listed as draft, so interested contractors should monitor eTenders for confirmation of the final tender status and any addenda or briefing session notices before the closing date.

Suitable Businesses

This tender is suited to registered construction contractors holding a CIDB grading of 8GB or higher in building, with proven experience in refurbishment of residential or institutional buildings and healthcare or government projects. Businesses should have the financial capacity, plant, and skilled workforce to deliver a 22-month contract, along with valid tax clearance, B-BBEE certificate, and the compliance documents required for public-sector tenders. Specialist subcontractors in areas such as electrical, plumbing, and finishes may be relevant as subcontractors to a main contractor who meets the grading requirement. Companies below the required CIDB grading or without building refurbishment experience are unlikely to qualify.
