Waterborne Sewer Connections for 10 Households

Swellendam Municipality is seeking a qualified contractor to provide and install waterborne sewer connections to 10 households in Sofietjie Street, Railton, Swellendam, under quotation reference SMQ30-26-27. The work involves connecting individual residential properties to the municipal waterborne sewer system. The advertised documents do not state a estimated contract value or a specific completion period, so these details should be confirmed with the municipality through the official quotation documents before pricing.

Bidders must hold a CIDB contractor grading designation of 1CE or higher. Attendance at the compulsory site clarification meeting is a special condition of bid. The meeting will take place on Friday, 6 November 2026 at 12:00 at the Infrastructure Department, 01 Lourens Street, Swellendam. Quotations must be submitted on the prescribed documents, placed in a sealed envelope clearly marked with the quotation number and description, and must include a valid Tax Compliance Status PIN issued by SARS. Quotations must be deposited in the Municipal Quotation Box at the Supply Chain Management Offices, 11 Lind Street, Swellendam, before 11:00 on 13 November 2026. The box is accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, but late quotations, and quotations submitted by email or facsimile, will not be considered. Official quotation documents may be obtained from Mr K. Juries in the Supply Chain Management Unit (tel: 028 514 8500, scm@swellendam.gov.za) from 29 October 2026. Technical enquiries must be submitted in writing to Mr J. Booysen, and no inquiries will be handled during the last two days before closing.

Evaluation will follow the 80/20 preference point system. The municipality does not bind itself to accept the lowest or any quotation and reserves the right to accept a quotation in full or in part. Bids remain valid for 84 days from the closing date. For contractors, this is a localised civil works opportunity with a clearly defined scope, a fixed set of compliance requirements, and a relatively short submission window, making thorough preparation for the site meeting and documentation essential.
