Safety Audit Tenders

The supplier shall deliver the goods/services within the delivery period specified in the purchase order or schedule requirements. Should the supplier fail to deliver within the agreed delivery period, the purchaser shall, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available, impose penalties for late delivery.

The service provider shall note and accept Pretoria Metal Pressings (a division of Denel SOC)'s payment terms as stipulated in the SLA and/or contract. Payment will only be made after acceptance at PMP.

Denel PMP will award the tender to the highest scoring tenderers unless objective criteria justify the award to another tenderer.

Tenderers are required to include, as annexure K to their tenders, supporting documents to their responses. These include: a valid BBBEE certificate, certified copy of the company registration with CIPC, original letter from the bank issued on a bank letterhead with stamp, certified copies of all shareholder certificates and their ID copies, and certified copies of shareholder agreements if applicable.

The penalty shall be calculated at 1% of the total order value for each completed week of delay subject to a maximum of 10% of the total order value. If the delay exceeds 4 weeks, the purchaser reserves the right to cancel the order, in whole or part.

Failure to supply clarification to the satisfaction of Pretoria Metal Pressings (a division of Denel SOC) may render the tender liable to disqualification. In the event of a contract being awarded as a result of points claimed, the contractor may be required to furnish documentary proof to the satisfaction of the purchaser that the claims are correct. If the BBBEE status of contributor has been claimed or obtained on a fraudulent basis or any of the conditions of contract have not been fulfilled, the purchaser may, in addition to any other remedy it may have: a) disqualify the person from the bidding process, b) recover costs, losses or damages it has incurred or suffered as a result of that person's conduct, c) cancel the contract and claim any damages which it has suffered as a result of having to make less favourable arrangements due to such cancellation, d) recommend that the bidder or contractor, its shareholders and directors, or only the shareholders and directors who acted on a fraudulent basis, be restricted by the national treasury from obtaining business from any organ of state for a period not exceeding 10 years, after the audi alteram partem (hear the other side) rule has been applied and e) forward the matter for criminal prosecution.

The bid notice states if the breach has not been rectified, the cm must issue the contractor a nonperformance penalty.
