Notable Procurement Terms

Preference Point System: Evaluation follows an 80/20 weighting system (80 points for price, 20 points for specific goals). Full preference points are allocated exclusively to companies that are at least 100% owned by Black Africans. Proof of ownership via ID documents is required to claim these points.

NCR Paper Technology: The job record books utilize No Carbon Required (NCR) paper, which eliminates the need for traditional carbon sheets while allowing simultaneous multi-part copying. This ensures clean, efficient record-keeping for maintenance requests without manual carbon placement.

Compliance Mandates: Failure to submit any compulsory administrative documents, tax clearance, or CSD registration will result in immediate disqualification. The department reserves the right to reject non-compliant, late, or expired submissions and may impose penalties for delayed performance based on prime interest rates.
