Hygiene Services and Consumables (24 Months) NEW

Mkhondo Local Municipality has issued a re-advertised tender (MKHO21/2026/27) for the provision of hygiene services and consumables over a maximum contract period of twenty-four (24) months. The municipality requires a service provider to maintain hygiene standards across its washroom facilities in line with Occupational Health and Safety requirements, including the OHS Act of 1993. The scope covers routine hygiene services, the supply of washroom consumables, and periodic deep cleaning and testing services, with delivery on a weekly, monthly or quarterly basis as specified.

Key service components include: servicing of Sanitary Hygiene (SHE) bins placed in ladies' restrooms, involving swapping soiled bins for freshly sanitised units and removing and disposing of the waste as hazardous material; managing and refilling automatic soap dispensers, seat sanitisers, urinal sanitisers, janitor refills and 250ml auto air fresheners; supplying 2-ply hand paper towel rolls and SHE packets; deep cleaning of hand basins, showers, toilets and urinals; and SWAB test services. The bill of quantities lists deep cleaning on a monthly basis, while the scope of works refers to quarterly deep cleaning, so bidders should clarify this frequency with the municipality before pricing. Bids must be priced in Rand on a firm-price basis, with VAT shown separately, and the municipality has indicated that quantities are approximate. The estimated contract value is not stated in the documents reviewed.

Bidders must be registered on the Central Supplier Database (CSD) and submit a full, comprehensive CSD report no older than thirty days before closing. Other compulsory documents include a valid Tax Compliance Status PIN, certified IDs of directors, company registration documents, municipal account statements or lease agreements, a letter of authority with specimen signatures, and a resolution signed by all directors. Functionality is scored out of 100 across company experience (40 points, based on appointment letters or purchase orders from the past 10 years), financial capacity (25 points, based on a stamped bank rating), tools and equipment (25 points, based on ownership of bakkies registered in the bidder's name) and reference letters (10 points). A minimum of 60 points is required to proceed to price and preference evaluation. The 80/20 preference system applies, with 20 points available for specific goals, including black ownership, women, youth and disabled ownership, local enterprise location within Mkhondo, and B-BBEE status. Bids close on 10 December 2026 at 12:00 and must be deposited in the bid box at 33 Corner Market and De Wet Street, eMkhondo, in a sealed and clearly marked envelope. Late, emailed, faxed or incorrectly deposited bids will not be considered.
