Objectives

The primary objective is to refurbish the canteen facility at the Rotating Machines Depot by delivering targeted structural and finishing repairs. The project aims to restore and upgrade the dining environment to meet operational standards within a strict, short-term timeframe.

Scope

The successful tenderer will be responsible for the supply, delivery, and repair/installation of specific building components at the designated depot location. The scope encompasses:

• Floor tile replacement or repair
• Ceiling board installation or replacement
• Roofing repairs or upgrades

The engagement is structured as a single, non-recurring project with a maximum execution period of three months.

Technical Requirements

• CIDB Contractor Grading: Tenderers must hold a minimum Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB) grading of 2GB or higher to qualify for evaluation and preference point allocation.
• Eligibility Stages:
  • Stage One: Mandatory attendance at a compulsory clarification meeting is required to establish initial eligibility.
  • Stage Two: Verification of compliance with CIDB registration and grading requirements.
• Functionality Scoring: A minimum qualifying score of 70 points must be achieved in the functionality evaluation stage to advance to price and preference point assessments.
• Submission Protocols: Tenders must strictly adhere to prescribed sealing, addressing, delivery, and formatting guidelines. Submissions received after 16h00 on 3 November 2026 will be automatically disqualified.
• Documentation Compliance: All tenders must be submitted using the official tender documentation package; deviations or alternative formats will not be accepted.

Skills Requirements

While specific trade certifications are not itemised in the notice, the mandatory CIDB 2GB grading inherently requires proven competency in building construction and renovation works. Contractors must demonstrate adequate skilled labour, site supervision, and project management capacity to execute tiling, ceiling installation, and roofing repairs safely and to industry standards. Experience in managing short-duration, once-off commercial refurbishment projects is strongly implied given the three-month delivery window and the need for coordinated material supply and on-site execution.
