Transnet SOC Ltd seeks suppliers to deliver a 440mm main hoist sheave pulley (P/N HL40401) for its equipment stores. Bids are evaluated on price (80%) and B-BBEE status (20%), with electronic submission closing 26 October 2026 at 23:00.
Transnet SOC Ltd has issued Request for Quotations TPT/2026/10/1462/13448/RFQ for the supply and delivery of a main hoist sheave pulley, 440 mm in diameter, under part number HL40401. The tender is listed under the reference "Supply of spares for various equipment stores" (TPT_582_ADJ_220626), indicating that it forms part of Transnet's ongoing maintenance and spares procurement for its operational equipment. The RFQ was issued on 22 October 2026 and closes on 26 October 2026 at 23:00. Bidders should note that the eTenders listing is categorised under "Supplies: Medical", which does not match the nature of the requirement; the RFQ documentation itself describes an industrial lifting-equipment component.
Bids must be submitted electronically through the Transnet eSupplier Portal (esupplierportal.transnet.net). Pricing must be completed in the portal's electronic pricing schedule, and paper pricing will not be accepted. Transnet strongly advises submitting at least one day before the closing date, as late submissions are not accepted. Each company must register its own profile and use it to log its intent to bid and submit its bid. Bidders must provide a valid SARS Tax Compliance Status PIN or, where no TCS is available, a Central Supplier Database (CSD) number. Unincorporated consortia, joint ventures and sub-contractors must each submit a separate TCS PIN or CSD number. The mandatory returnable document is the completed pricing schedule. Essential returnable documents include the SBD1 Form, the RFQ Declaration and Breach of Law Form, and the Protection of Personal Information (POPIA) consent form. Failure to submit the mandatory documents will disqualify a quotation, and failure to submit the essential documents may do the same.
Evaluation is based on the 80/20 preference point system, with 80 points for price and 20 points for B-BBEE status. B-BBEE points are awarded as follows: Level 1 contributors receive 15 points, Level 2 receive 10, Level 3 receive 5, and non-compliant or Level 4 to 8 contributors receive 0. Bidders may also claim up to 5 additional points if they are at least 51% owned by Black Youth. Evidence must include a B-BBEE certificate, sworn affidavit or CIPC certificate, and for Black Youth ownership, certified copies of owners' ID documents. Missing evidence results in zero points for the relevant specific goal. Bids must remain valid for 90 days from the closing date. Transnet reserves the right to split the award between suppliers, award a partial scope, cancel the process, or validate all submitted information. It also requires disclosure of any relationships with Domestic or Foreign Prominent Influential Persons (DPIP/FPPO), and bidders must complete the RFQ Declaration and Breach of Law Form, which includes conflict-of-interest and anti-collusion declarations.
This tender suits manufacturers, authorised distributors and suppliers of industrial lifting and hoisting components, particularly sheaves and pulleys for crane or hoist systems. Suppliers of OEM or equivalent engineering spares for rail or heavy industrial equipment are well placed to respond. Businesses must be able to supply the specified part number, provide a SARS TCS PIN or CSD number, complete electronic pricing on the Transnet portal, and provide B-BBEE evidence to earn preference points. Medical suppliers are unlikely to be relevant despite the listed category. Bidders should confirm the specification and quantity with the designated Transnet contact, Lusanda Metu (043 700 2158, Lusanda.metu@transnet.net), before the closing deadline.
