CERTIFICATE OF INDEPENDENT PROPOSAL DETERMINATION

1 This Municipal Bidding Document (MBD) must form part of all bids¹ invited.

2 Section 4 (1) (b) (iii) of the Competition Act No. 89 of 1998, as amended, prohibits an agreement between, or concerted practice by, firms, or a decision by an association of firms, if it is between parties in a horizontal relationship and if it involves collusive bidding (or bid rigging).² Collusive bidding is a prohibition meaning that it cannot be justified under any grounds.

3 Municipal Supply Regulation 38 (1) prescribes that a supply chain management policy must provide measures for the combating of abuse of the supply chain management system, and must enable the accounting officer, among others, to:

a. take all reasonable steps to prevent such abuse;

b. reject the bid of any bidder if that bidder or any of its directors has abused the supply chain management system of the municipality or municipal entity or has committed any improper conduct in relation to such system; and

c. cancel a contract awarded to a person if the person committed any corrupt or fraudulent act during the bidding process or the execution of the contract.

4 This MBD serves as a certificate of declaration that would be used by institutions to ensure that, when bids are considered, reasonable steps are taken to prevent any form of bid-rigging.

5 In order to give effect to the above, the attached Certificate of Bid Determination (MBD 9) must be completed and submitted with the bid:

¹ Includes price quotations, advertised competitive bids, limited bids and proposals.

² Bid rigging (or collusive bidding) occurs when businesses, that would otherwise be expected to compete, secretly conspire to raise prices or lower the quality of goods and I or services for purchasers who wish to acquire goods and I or services through a bidding process. Bid rigging is, therefore, an agreement between competitors not to compete.

All Service Providers (SP’s) and potential bidders

Dear Sir/Madam

Incomplete documentation in terms of bidding processes.

With reference to the judgment of the Supreme Court of Appeal case number 937/2012 Dr JS Moroka Municipality vs. Bertram (PTY) Limited 2013 JDR 2728 SCA the following:

“In our view the judgment supports the proposition that a Municipality determines the requirements for a valid tender and a failure to comply with the prescribed conditions of tender will result in such tender being disqualified as it would not be an 'acceptable tender' as defined in the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act 5 of 2000 unless the prescribed conditions are immaterial, unreasonable or unconstitutional.

Therefore, provided that the relevant tender document makes provision for an original tax clearance certificate and/or any other certificates/documents as a prescribed minimum prerequisite and/or peremptory requirement in order for such tender to be considered an 'acceptable tender' and to pass the threshold requirement for consideration and evaluation, and a tenderer fails to provide same, the Municipality would be within its rights to disqualify such tender/tenderer.”

Therefore BERGRIVIER Municipality will with immediate effect exclude all offers from bidders if the required documentation is not handed in/or attached with the original bidding documents.
