Tender Summary

Tender Summary: MAK89/2026

Objectives

The primary objective of this tender is to upgrade and secure municipal electrical infrastructure by procuring and implementing reliable switching equipment for a critical high-voltage distribution node. This project aligns with the municipality’s strategic vision to drive socio-economic development through enhanced energy reliability, robust infrastructure delivery, and expanded local economic opportunities.

Scope

The contract encompasses the complete project lifecycle for the specified equipment:

  • Supply: Procurement of outdoor disconnectors that meet municipal specifications and national quality standards.
  • Delivery: Secure transportation of all materials to the designated site at Beja.
  • Installation: Mechanical mounting, electrical wiring, and integration of the disconnectors into the existing network.
  • Commissioning: System testing, energization, performance verification, and formal handover to confirm operational readiness and regulatory compliance.

Technical Requirements

Bidders must submit official documentation verifying registration with the Department of Labour as an electrical contractor. The submission must clearly display either an Installation Electrician (IE) or Master Electrician (ME) registration number. All installations must adhere to national electrical safety codes, municipal engineering standards, and high-voltage operational protocols.

Skills Requirements

Contractors must demonstrate certified technical competency in high-voltage electrical systems. The executing team must be directed or supervised by personnel holding valid IE or ME credentials. This ensures proper risk assessment, compliance with statutory safety regulations, and professional execution of complex electrical infrastructure works.

Explanation of Key Terms

  • Outdoor Disconnectors: Heavy-duty isolation switches designed for external environments. They safely de-energize and physically separate sections of an electrical circuit during maintenance or fault conditions, built to withstand weather exposure and high electrical stress.
  • 66kV Line: A medium-to-high voltage power transmission corridor operating at 66,000 volts. It functions as a vital link between substations and regional distribution networks, requiring specialized handling, clearance zones, and certified personnel.
  • IE / ME Registration: National licensing classifications issued by the Department of Labour. An Installation Electrician (IE) is legally qualified to perform electrical installations, while a Master Electrician (ME) holds advanced certification permitting system design oversight, contractor management, and official compliance sign-off on complex projects.

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
