DN250 Hydraulic Altitude Level Control Valve

Kouga Local Municipality invites written quotations (RFQ) for the supply and delivery of one DN250 PN16 hydraulic altitude level control valve for the Fountains Reservoir in Jeffreys Bay, Eastern Cape. The valve is a critical component for regulating water levels in the reservoir, helping the municipality maintain a reliable water supply to the local community. The bid is listed under tender reference 265/2026, and the pricing schedule covers a single item: the supply and delivery of the valve to the prescribed destination.

Bidders must submit firm prices, as non-firm prices will not be considered. All delivery costs must be included in the bid price, and the bidder must state whether it is a registered VAT vendor. Submissions must be made on the official municipal forms, completed in non-erasable black ink, with no correction fluid used. Each page requiring a signature must be originally signed in black ink, and copies of signatures will not be accepted. Bids must include a hard copy and an electronic copy on USB or SD card/CD. Failure to provide both formats, or mismatched content between them, will result in the bid being declared non-responsive. Bids are to be deposited in the tender box at Woltemade Building, 16 Woltemade Street, Room 122, Jeffreys Bay, by 12:00 on Thursday, 12 November 2026.

The evaluation uses the 80/20 preference point system, with 80 points for price and 20 points for specific goals. Specific goals comprise B-BBEE status level (10 points) and local area of the supplier (10 points, with the highest scores for businesses located within the Kouga Local Municipality boundaries). Claiming specific goals requires a valid B-BBEE certificate or sworn affidavit and a recent municipal billing clearance certificate or municipal account in the company's name for an operational office. Virtual offices are not accepted. Bidders must also have a valid SARS Tax Compliance Status PIN or CSD number, complete the Municipal Bidding Documents (including MBD 6.1, MBD 9, and the declarations of interest and municipal rates clearance), and submit a schedule of similar work completed in the past five years. The National Treasury database and tax compliance will be verified on evaluation day. Note that the eTenders category lists this as a professional services tender, but the documents describe a goods supply and delivery requirement. The documents do not state an estimated contract value or any installation or commissioning scope.
