How organs of state buy construction
Contractors must be registered on the CIDB Register of Contractors with a grading at or above the one the tender names, such as 6CE for civil works or 5GB for buildings; the grade sets the largest contract a firm may take. Works follow the GCC, JBCC or NEC conditions of contract, and the Construction Regulations require a health and safety plan.
Organs of state buy under section 217 of the Constitution and either the Public Finance Management Act (PFMA), for departments and public entities, or the Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA), for municipalities. The Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act and its 2022 regulations add 80/20 or 90/10 preference points for the specific goals each tender names. Bidders need Central Supplier Database (CSD) registration, a tax compliance status confirmed by SARS and, to claim B-BBEE points, a certificate or sworn affidavit. Missing a compulsory briefing session disqualifies a bid.
