Award notice for 48-month mechanical maintenance of boiler auxiliary plant, soot blowers and valves at Eskom's Camden Power Station. Awarded to QLJ JV and Labour Junction Trading; the enquiry is now closed.
Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd has awarded enquiry E2185GXMPCAMR for the provision of mechanical maintenance of the boiler auxiliary plant, soot blowers and valves at Camden Power Station. The contract runs for 48 months and covers the upkeep of critical mechanical equipment that supports boiler operation at the power station. The award was made to QLJ JV, a joint venture between Quench Management Services cc and Labour Junction Trading (Pty) Ltd. The notice was issued under Eskom's procurement framework, which aims to be fair, equitable, transparent, competitive and cost-effective.
The scope centres on three asset groups. Boiler auxiliary plant includes the ancillary mechanical systems that support boiler performance and availability. Soot blowers are used to remove ash and fouling from boiler heat-transfer surfaces, which helps maintain thermal efficiency and reduces the risk of unplanned outages. Valves cover the mechanical isolation, control and safety devices used throughout the plant. Work of this kind typically includes planned and corrective maintenance, inspections, repairs, component replacement and adherence to Eskom's safety, quality and maintenance standards. The exact deliverables, service levels and reporting requirements are set out in the full tender documentation, which was not included in the notice.
For Eskom, a multi-year maintenance contract of this type provides continuity of service, consistent maintenance quality and better planning of outages. For the power station, it supports reliable generation and lower risk of forced outages. For suppliers, the award gives a clear indication of the scope and duration of demand at Camden Power Station. Although this tender is no longer open to new bids, the notice is useful for market intelligence, for identifying potential subcontracting opportunities with the awarded joint venture, and for preparing for future Eskom maintenance tenders of a similar nature.
This award is most relevant to mechanical engineering contractors, boiler maintenance specialists, soot blower service providers and valve maintenance companies with experience in power station or heavy industrial environments. Businesses with Eskom registration, a valid CSD number, and the technical and safety credentials typically required for power station work should also take note. Because the enquiry has been awarded and closed, the notice is mainly useful for identifying subcontracting or supply opportunities with the awarded joint venture, understanding the scope of demand at Camden Power Station, and preparing for future Eskom maintenance tenders. The listed category, 'Services: Civil', does not match the mechanical nature of the work, so suppliers searching by category may need to use keywords such as boiler, soot blower or mechanical maintenance instead.
