Appointment of a qualified service provider to conduct an external audit of the Thohoyandou Landfill Site and determine its remaining airspace capacity. Suited to environmental consultants and waste management specialists with landfill engineering experience. Closing date: 10 November 2026.
Thulamela Local Municipality invites suitably qualified and experienced service providers to submit proposals for the provision of an external landfill audit at the Thohoyandou Landfill Site, including the determination of remaining airspace. The appointed service provider will independently assess the current operational status of the landfill facility, evaluating compliance with applicable environmental legislation, including the National Environmental Management: Waste Act (Act 59 of 2008) and associated regulations and permit conditions. The audit is expected to cover site infrastructure, cell development, operational practices, leachate and gas management, and record-keeping, with findings presented in a formal report with recommendations for corrective action.
A central component of the assignment is the determination of remaining airspace, which requires a topographical survey of the existing waste footprint, comparison against the approved landfill design and final contour plans, and calculation of the volume of available disposal capacity. The service provider will be expected to apply recognised survey and engineering methodologies, provide supporting drawings, cut-and-fill calculations, and an estimate of the remaining operational life of the site based on current waste input rates. Accurate airspace data is critical for the municipality's long-term waste disposal planning, capital budgeting for new cells or site replacement, and compliance reporting to the provincial and national environmental authorities.
Bidders should demonstrate relevant experience in landfill auditing, airspace surveying, and waste management engineering, along with appropriate professional registrations (such as Pr. Eng. or Pr. Sci. Nat.), qualified personnel, and suitable survey equipment. Proof of tax compliance, B-BBEE status, CIDB registration where applicable, and compliance with the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act will be required. Interested parties should review the tender document carefully, attend any compulsory briefing sessions, and submit their bids by the closing date of 10 November 2026 in accordance with the prescribed submission requirements.
Environmental consultancies, waste management engineering firms, landfill auditing specialists, and licensed land surveying firms with experience in landfill airspace measurement. Bidders should hold relevant professional registrations (e.g., Pr. Eng., Pr. Sci. Nat., or registered land surveyor) and have a proven track record with municipal or landfill projects. Joint ventures combining environmental and survey expertise are also well suited. Small and medium enterprises may apply where they meet the technical and B-BBEE requirements, and should check for any set-aside or subcontracting opportunities in the tender document.
