Tender Summary

Objectives

The primary objective of this tender is to procure a complete professional multimedia equipment package to enhance the municipality's communications capabilities, support council-sitting broadcasts, and enable high-quality video production and post-editing workflows.

Scope

The scope covers the supply and delivery of photographic, video production, audio, lighting, acoustic, and computing hardware. Bidders must quote for all listed items and explicitly state the delivery period in their submission. The procurement does not include installation, commissioning, training, or maintenance services.

Technical Requirements

Suppliers must provide equipment meeting or exceeding the following specifications:

  • Cameras & Stabilisation: Canon EOS R50 mirrorless camera kit with RF-S 18-45mm and 55-210mm lenses; two professional fluid-head video tripods; one DJI RS 4 Pro Combo 3-axis handheld gimbal.
  • Editing Workstation & Displays: One Apple Mac Studio M4 Max (or equivalent) featuring a 14-core CPU, 32-core GPU, 36GB unified memory, and 1TB SSD; two 27-inch 4K UHD IPS editing monitors with USB-C/HDMI and height-adjustable stands; one Mac-compatible USB-C keyboard and mouse set.
  • Live Production & Streaming: One 4-input HDMI live-production switcher with ISO recording, streaming, USB webcam output, and multiview; one 24-inch monitoring display for switcher/multiview use; one 14-inch teleprompter compatible with mirrorless/cinema cameras.
  • Audio & Lighting: Five bi-colour COB video lights (2800K–6500K, dimmable, Bowens mount); two 90cm Bowens-mount softboxes; five heavy-duty light stands (minimum 2m height); one dual wireless microphone system with two transmitters and one receiver.
  • Acoustics & Background: Three packs of acoustic wall panels (minimum 12 per pack); two high-absorption acoustic panels (NRC 0.95, 120x60cm); two pull-up chroma-key green screen systems.
  • Storage, Power & Connectivity: Two 2TB USB-C portable SSDs (USB 3.2 Gen 2 or better); two 256GB SDXC UHS-II V60 memory cards; two 256GB SDXC V30/U3 memory cards; one Canon BP-A30/N spare battery kit; one Canon LP-E17 battery and charger kit; one comprehensive video cabling and converter kit including HDMI, Micro-HDMI adapters, USB-C, Ethernet, SDI-to-HDMI converters, and council-sitting cable allowances.

Skills Requirements

This tender is strictly for the supply of goods. No specialised technical skills, certifications, or service capabilities are required beyond standard logistics, warehousing, and delivery competencies. Bidders must guarantee that all supplied equipment is brand new, fully compliant with manufacturer standards, and accompanied by valid warranties.

Explanation of Technical Terms & Conditions

ISO Recording Switcher: A live production device that records each camera input separately alongside the final mixed output, enabling editors to isolate individual feeds during post-production.

Chroma-Key System: A green screen setup used to digitally replace backgrounds with graphics or alternative footage during video editing.

NRC 0.95: Noise Reduction Coefficient indicating the material absorbs 95% of incident sound energy, critical for minimising echo in broadcast studios.

COB Lights & Bowens Mount: Continuous On Board LED fixtures providing steady illumination for video; the Bowens mount is a universal bracket system allowing rapid attachment of light modifiers like softboxes.

80/20 Preference Point System: An evaluation framework allocating 80 points to price competitiveness and 20 points to designated socio-economic goals, including historically disadvantaged enterprise ownership, local economic development, and B-BBEE compliance.

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
