Tender Summary

Objectives

The primary objective of this tender is to procure helicopter charter services for Rand Water's scientific and operational needs. Specifically, the services aim to support aerial surveys of river systems, including the Vaal Barrage and Vaal Dam catchments, to identify pollution incidents, riparian encroachment, and source water management issues. The helicopter services will also include photography and videography for incident recording and reporting. The work requires skilled pilots to ensure safe low-level flying in challenging environments, including rivers, wetlands, residential, and industrial areas.

Scope

The scope of work involves providing ad-hoc helicopter flights based on operational requirements, such as pollution incidents or flooding events, which must be arranged within 24 hours. The flights will vary in duration and may include:

  • Identification of pollution and encroachment along river catchments
  • Low-level aerial surveys over rivers, wetlands, and confined areas
  • Photography and videography documentation

The work is not continuous but occurs as needed, with specific flights tailored to operational circumstances. The scope also includes providing qualified pilots, suitable helicopter types (e.g., Bell 407), and complying with technical and safety requirements.

Technical Requirements

Minimum Requirements

  • Completion and signing of the pricing schedule (Section 3.3)
  • Provision of helicopter types with associated hourly rates (e.g., Bell 407)
  • Qualified pilots with valid licenses and sufficient flying hours
  • Adherence to safety standards for low-level flying in complex environments
  • Availability of equipment and resources, including owned or leased helicopters and support equipment
  • Capability to respond to operational requests within 24 hours

Evaluation Criteria

  • Previous related experience in similar helicopter survey work
  • Human resource capacity and expertise
  • Equipment resource capacity and availability
  • Project programme and scheduling ability
  • Pricing and B-BBEE compliance

Additional Technical Considerations

  • Adherence to safety, health, and environmental standards
  • Provision of detailed project schedules and milestones
  • Compliance with legal and contractual terms, including warranties and force majeure clauses

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
