The Eastern Cape Department of Health is inviting quotes for the supply and delivery of pre-plating wash bay equipment to Frere Hospital for a period of 24 months. Bids must be submitted on CSD or eTender portals by June 23, 2026, at 11:00 AM. Emailed or faxed documents will not be accepted. The evaluation will be based on administrative compliance, non-negotiable requirements, and price/specific goals (80/20 system). A sample submission will be required before the delivery of the order. The contract is rate-based and will be used as and when required, with orders subject to budget availability. The department does not guarantee any procurement, and work/deliveries must only take place once an official order is issued.
The closing date for bid submissions is 23 June 2026 at 11:00 AM.
Payment will be made within 30 days after receipt of an invoice accompanied by the delivery note.
The warranty period is twelve 12 months after the goods have been delivered and accepted, or eighteen 18 months after the date of shipment, whichever concludes earlier.
The quote will be evaluated based on administrative compliance, compliance to non-negotiable requirements, and price/specific goals (80/20 system).
The company must be registered as a catering equipment supplier and maintainer, have experienced qualified technicians, be registered with the Workman's Compensation Fund, and submit at least three contactable references of similar work supplied in the last 12 months to the value of R500,000 or more.
If the supplier fails to deliver within the specified periods, the purchaser may deduct a penalty from the contract price, calculated on the delivered price of the delayed goods or unperformed services.
Successful bidders must supply a sample upon award, and the recommended supplier will be requested to provide a sample before delivery of the actual order.
Failure to provide required particulars may render the quote invalid. Bids from persons in the service of the state or companies with directors in the service of the state will not be considered.
