Replacement of non-functioning air-conditioning plants and chillers at the Supreme Court of Appeal, Bloemfontein. Requires supply, installation, and commissioning of HVAC systems. Bidders must meet public sector procurement and technical requirements.
The Department of Public Works and Infrastructure invites suitably qualified and registered contractors to submit tenders for the replacement of non-functioning air-conditioning plants and chillers at the Supreme Court of Appeal. The existing installations have ceased to operate effectively, affecting the working environment of the court and its staff and visitors. The project involves the removal of defective units, supply and installation of new air-conditioning plants and chillers, and associated mechanical and electrical works required to bring the systems into full operational condition.
The scope of work is expected to include site assessment, decommissioning and safe disposal of existing equipment, supply and installation of replacement units in line with the specifications set out in the tender documents, integration with existing building management and electrical infrastructure, testing, commissioning, and handover. Bidders are expected to provide appropriate warranties, maintenance support, and evidence of relevant experience in commercial or institutional HVAC projects. Compliance with South African National Standards (SANS), occupational health and safety requirements, and CIDB grading requirements for the relevant civil and mechanical engineering category is anticipated. Tender documents are provided in multiple volumes, including technical specifications, conditions of contract, and pricing schedules, which should be reviewed in full before submission.
The project will restore reliable climate control to a critical judicial facility, supporting continuity of court operations and improving conditions for occupants. Suppliers with proven HVAC installation capability, mechanical engineering expertise, and experience working on government buildings are well positioned to compete. Submission closes on 24 November 2026, and interested bidders should verify eligibility, compulsory briefing requirements (if any), and all documentation requirements in the tender pack. Note that document content could not be extracted for this summary, so specific quantities, capacities, and technical criteria should be confirmed directly from the tender volumes.
HVAC contractors and mechanical engineering firms with experience in chiller and air-conditioning installation, particularly in commercial, institutional or government buildings. Businesses should hold relevant CIDB grading (mechanical or electrical categories), be tax-compliant and registered on the National Treasury Central Supplier Database, and have capacity to manage a project of this scale. Specialist refrigeration and building services subcontractors may also be suitable as partners or subcontractors to a main contractor.
