Case TLB Comprehensive Repair Services NEW

Transnet SOC Ltd, through its Transnet Pipelines operating division, has issued Request for Quotation TPL/2026/05/0327/5513/RFQ for a service provider to perform comprehensive repair services on a non-starting Case TLB (Tractor-Loader-Backhoe). This is a once-off engagement under the Transnet Standard Terms and Conditions, with a contract value not exceeding R500,000 including VAT, as indicated in the RFQ bid document. The scope of work is detailed in Annexure A, which was not included in the documents reviewed, so bidders should obtain it from the eSupplier Portal before pricing. The work is expected to cover diagnosis of the no-start fault, repair of the faulty systems, and return of the machine to full working order. Contract commencement and expiry dates are listed as TBA in the Schedule of Requirements.

Bidders must submit the Transnet Online System-Generated Pricing Schedule through the Transnet Digital Procurement System (TDPS) eSupplier Portal. Quotes made on any other format will be disqualified. Other mandatory or essential returnable documents include the SBD1 Form, the RFQ Declaration and Breach of Law Form, the Protection of Personal Information consent form, and a Letter of Good Standing. Bidders must also provide a valid SARS Tax Compliance Status PIN or a Central Supplier Database (CSD) number, and a B-BBEE Certificate, Sworn Affidavit, or CIPC certificate to claim the 20 preference points for Level 1 or 2 contributors. Evaluation is 80 points for price and 20 points for B-BBEE, and bids must remain valid for 180 days after the closing date. Non-disclosure of a Schedule of Requirements contract price is standard, and bidders are advised to submit well ahead of the deadline because late submissions are not accepted.

Note on dates: the listing shows a closing date of 13 November 2026, but the bid document states an issue date of 10 September 2026 and a closing date of 16 September 2026 at 13:00. Bidders should verify the authoritative closing date and time on the Transnet eSupplier Portal before preparing their submission. Enquiries may be directed to Sihle Mayisela at Sihle.Mayisela@transnet.net or 031 361 1086. Successful repair of this asset supports Transnet's ongoing operational readiness, and a reliable service provider may be considered for future similar once-off repair requirements.
