Preventative Maintenance of Electrical Installations and Street Lighting

The Department of Public Works has published a tender for the preventative maintenance of electrical installations covering security lighting, street lighting and high mast lighting within Cluster LL, which spans the Dr Kenneth Kaunda and Ngaka Modiri Molema districts. The contract is aimed at keeping public lighting infrastructure safe, reliable and fully operational through scheduled inspections, testing, servicing and minor repairs, reducing the likelihood of unplanned faults and extending the working life of installed equipment.

Bidders must hold a CIDB grading of 5 EB (Electrical Engineering, Building) or EP (Electrical Engineering, Power) or higher, demonstrating the technical capacity to undertake electrical work of this scale. Detailed scope, technical specifications, bill of quantities, site requirements and pricing schedules are contained in the supporting document (pa06_3CbotlaloClusterII), which should be reviewed carefully before submitting a bid. Prospective contractors should also expect to comply with standard requirements such as valid tax clearance, registration on the National Treasury Central Supplier Database, and applicable occupational health and safety and Occupational Health and Safety Act compliance.

For successful contractors, the tender represents a sizeable, multi-district maintenance opportunity with potential for recurring work and the development of a track record with provincial government infrastructure. For the public, the programme supports safer roads, public spaces and communities by ensuring that street and security lighting functions consistently. Interested businesses should confirm their eligibility, CIDB registration and capacity to mobilise across both districts before the closing date of 2 December 2026, noting that the supporting document content could not be automatically extracted and should be verified directly on eTenders.
