HPE ProLiant DL320 Gen11 16TB Backup Solution

The National Radioactive Waste Disposal Institute (NRWDI) is seeking a supplier to provide and deliver an HPE ProLiant DL320 Gen11 backup solution with 16TB of storage capacity. The HPE ProLiant DL320 Gen11 is a compact rack-mounted server designed for small and medium-sized business and branch environments, and it is commonly used for dedicated data protection, backup, and file storage. The procurement is issued as a Request for Quotation (RFQ) under the reference NRWDI/ICT/2026-17 and falls under the Computer Equipment category.

The tender title and metadata confirm the core requirement: the supply and delivery of one HPE ProLiant DL320 Gen11 server configured as a 16TB backup solution. The supporting RFQ document could not be extracted for this analysis, so detailed specifications such as processor and memory configuration, RAID level, backup software, quantities, warranty period, installation and configuration requirements, delivery location, and pricing format have not been confirmed. Bidders should download and review the RFQ document (Modified 8 November 2026) before preparing a quotation, as it will set out the mandatory technical specifications, compliance requirements, and evaluation criteria.

The NRWDI is a public entity, so the procurement must comply with the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act and National Treasury requirements, including the submission of valid tax clearance and B-BBEE documentation where applicable. The tender closes on 12 November 2026. The listing status currently shows as draft, so bidders should confirm that the RFQ is formally open on eTenders before submitting a response. Successful delivery will strengthen the institute's data protection and business continuity capability, supporting the secure retention of its institutional records and information systems.
