The bid is a goods-supply procurement under the Supply Chain Management framework and is evaluated under the 80/20 preferential procurement point system, with 80 points for price, 10 points for B-BBEE status level and 10 points for specific goals (local economic benefit). Bidders are invited to submit sealed quotations, clearly marked with the reference number and the project name, to the Budget and Treasury Office tender box at 25-27 Owen Street, Queenstown, by 12:00 on 30 October 2026. Tender documents are available from the SCM office from 23 October 2026 and can be downloaded from the municipal website at www.enochmgijima.gov.za. Note that the itemised equipment schedule, quantities and technical specifications were not included in the extracted text, so interested bidders should review the full Terms of Reference PDF before pricing.

To be considered responsive, bidders must submit a copy of their company registration documents (CK), proof of registration on the National Treasury Central Supplier Database (CSD), and a valid SARS Tax Compliance Status PIN. Other mandatory documents include a company profile demonstrating previous experience, a valid B-BBEE certificate or sworn affidavit issued by a SANAS-accredited verification agency (or an IRBA-registered auditor or accounting officer for EMEs and QSEs), a statement of municipal account not older than three months, or an alternative accepted proof of municipal rates status, and fully completed MBD forms (MBD 1 to MBD 9), including the Form of Offer. Certified documents must be no more than three months old. Prices must be inclusive of 15% VAT, include all administrative, transport and delivery costs, and remain firm for the contract period. The total price, in both words and figures, must be stated on the Form of Offer and signed. Bids must be in black ink, submitted intact, and must not be altered with Tipp-Ex. Any alteration to prices must be signed, and bids remain valid for 90 days after the closing date. Electronic, faxed and late submissions will not be accepted.

Successful bidders will be awarded a contract that delivers essential livestock-handling equipment to support local farming and animal husbandry activities in the municipal area. Points for specific goals are weighted toward suppliers located within the Enoch Mgijima Municipality (10 points), the Chris Hani District Municipality (7 points) and the wider Eastern Cape (5 points), which gives local businesses a measurable advantage. The municipality may accept the whole or part of a bid, or none, and it is not bound to accept the lowest bid. Technical enquiries may be directed to Mr A. Mgijima at 045 807 2694, and supply chain queries to Mr K. Mgoboza at 045 807 2091.
