Tender Summary

Objectives

The primary objective of this tender is to procure and install a replacement gauge flange for an Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) instrument. The municipality seeks to restore or maintain the operational integrity of critical laboratory equipment while ensuring compliance with public supply chain management regulations and preferential procurement policies.

Scope

The scope covers the supply and installation of one (1) lot consisting of a gauge flange specifically designed for ICP-MS systems. The engagement operates under an informal tender framework administered by the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality’s Budget & Treasury Directorate. The successful bidder will be responsible for delivering the component, verifying alignment with technical specifications, and performing the installation in accordance with municipal standards and safety protocols.

Technical Requirements

  • Delivery and installation must strictly adhere to the specifications provided in the tender documentation.
  • Bidders must be successfully registered on the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality Supplier Database before contract execution.
  • All quoted prices must remain valid for a minimum of thirty (30) days from the tender submission date.
  • Submissions must be completed exclusively via the official Informal Tender Portal; faxed or hard-copy bids will be rejected.
  • Full compliance with the General Conditions of Tender, Conditions of Purchase, and the Preferential Procurement Regulations of 2022 is mandatory.

Skills Requirements

The tender notice does not explicitly list personnel qualifications, but the nature of the work inherently requires technical expertise in analytical instrumentation maintenance. Providers should demonstrate proficiency in handling high-precision vacuum and gas-line components, familiarity with ICP-MS hardware architecture, and the capability to execute installations that preserve instrument sensitivity and operational safety. Administrative competence in navigating municipal e-procurement platforms and understanding preferential procurement scoring is also essential.

Explanation of Unusual or Complicated Terms

  • ICP-MS (Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry): A highly sensitive analytical technique used for detecting metals and certain non-metals at trace levels (parts per trillion). The gauge flange is a critical sealing component that maintains precise vacuum conditions and controlled gas flow during sample analysis.
  • 80/20 System: A South African preferential procurement evaluation model where eighty percent (80%) of scoring points are allocated to price competitiveness, and twenty percent (20%) are reserved for developmental objectives, such as supporting historically disadvantaged enterprises, women-owned businesses, or local suppliers.
  • Informal Tender: A simplified procurement process typically used for lower-value acquisitions. It reduces administrative burden while maintaining legal compliance, relying on digital submissions and streamlined evaluation criteria compared to formal public tenders.

Joint Ventures, Consortia and Subcontracting:

Most large tenders are composed of tasks in a number of different fields, and it is not always possible for a single company to cater for all of them, and therefore Joint Ventures and Consortia are formed to then submit a tender together.

Government tenders are also requiring the subcontracting of a percentage of the tender work, and the trouble is then finding Subcontractors to comply with the tender requirements

To assist companies with finding tender partners and subcontractors, you can now submit your contact details and company information on this page, so other interested parties can contact you for purposes of forming Joint Ventures and subcontracting
