Eskom seeks a contractor to remove, supply, deliver and install new air conditioning units across the Gauteng cluster on an as-and-when-required basis over 24 months. Suited to HVAC and electrical service providers with regional coverage.
Eskom has issued a tender for the removal, supply, delivery and installation of new air conditioning units at sites within the Gauteng cluster. The contract is structured on an 'as and when required' basis for a period of 24 months, meaning Eskom will issue individual work orders as cooling needs arise rather than committing to a fixed volume of work upfront. The scope covers the full replacement cycle: decommissioning and removing existing units, supplying new air conditioning equipment that meets the specified requirements, delivering it to the relevant sites, and installing and commissioning the units so they are fully operational.
The nature of the work is electrical and mechanical in character, as it involves connecting cooling equipment to existing power supplies and building infrastructure. Successful bidders are expected to demonstrate the technical capability, qualified personnel, and safety compliance required to work on Eskom premises, which typically includes adherence to Occupational Health and Safety Act requirements, relevant SANS standards, and Eskom's contractor safety and environmental obligations. Bidders should review the full tender documents, which are available for download on eTenders, to confirm specific technical specifications, equipment standards, warranty expectations, pricing schedules, and mandatory compliance and registration requirements, as these details could not be extracted for this summary.
For businesses, the opportunity offers a recurring, multi-year revenue stream across Gauteng, which is a major commercial hub with a high concentration of Eskom facilities. Awarded contractors benefit from a framework-style arrangement that provides steady demand without guaranteed volumes, allowing them to plan resources while building a long-term relationship with a major state-owned utility. Interested companies should prepare well ahead of the closing date of 20 November 2026, ensuring that tax clearance, B-BBEE documentation, company registration and relevant trade certifications are current.
Best suited to HVAC contractors, air conditioning installation companies, and electrical contractors with experience in commercial or industrial cooling systems and supply-and-install projects. Companies must be able to cover the Gauteng region, hold relevant trade and safety certifications, and demonstrate experience working on utility or large institutional sites. Smaller businesses may be suitable if they can partner with equipment suppliers or meet Eskom's supplier development and B-BBEE requirements, and should verify eligibility against the full tender documents.
