WELCOME AND INTRODUCTION  \nMs N Metula welcomed everyone and introduced the Department of Basic Education’s (DBE) team; Mr R Legodi, Ms N Banda ,(Supply Chain Management) , and Dr M Chetty, Dr N Shozi (Project Managers) . Bidders were advised to introduce themselves on the Chat to save time.  \n2. BID PRESENTATION  \nPresentation of the Terms of Reference (TORs) by Dr N Shozi.  \n3. SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT (SCM) MATTERS  \nThe SCM indicated that:  \na. The Briefing Session was non-compulsory as indicated in the bid document. Non-attendance to the Briefing Session does not lead to the disqualification of the bidders’ proposal/s.  \nb. The tender will close on 04 September 2026 at 11:00 . Any bid submitted after 11:00 will be considered late and will not be accepted by the DBE. The tender box is situated on the right-hand side before the main building entrance to the reception and is clearly marked “TENDER BOX”. Regarding the submission of larger documents/proposals that cannot fit in the tender box, the bidder is required to request the reception to call the SCM officials, who will register the document/s in the Register of submitted tender documents.  \nc. Bids must be submitted as hard copies; the DBE would not accept electronic/ emailed submissions.  \nd. One original bid proposal would suffice; there was no need to submit a copy of it as well.  \ne. The discussions during the Briefing Session and the questions raised after the Briefing Session will be consolidated and uploaded to the Department’s website ([www.education.gov.za](www.education.gov.za) ), and to the eTender Portal ([www.etenders.gov.za](www.etenders.gov.za) ), where the tender advert and documents are published. The presentation will also be published. Bidders could forward their clarity-seeking questions regarding the bid until 12 days before the tender closes. Make reference to a tender number when raising a question regarding that tender. The questions should be directed [to tenders@dbe.gov.za](to tenders@dbe.gov.za).  \nf. Bidders must read Mandatory Requirements carefully as listed in the TORs and ensure that they respond as required. Also see the tax requirements listed on SBD1, Part B. Below the table, it is stated that “Failure to provide/ or comply with any of the above particulars may render the bid invalid”.  \ng. Bidders must full complete, sign, and submit the SBD forms (with their bid document), which were uploaded with this tender document by the Department. Alteration or retyping of the SBD forms is not allowed and will result in the disqualification of the submitted bid.  \nh. Please note, bidders, that when completing the SBD1 form, you are required to provide your contact details and CSD number. It is important to ensure that these details correspond exactly with the information registered on the Central Supplier Database (CSD) . The Department uses this information when publishing the list of received bids and their corresponding bid prices. Should the CSD number or contact details provided on your SBD1 form not match the information reflected on the CSD, your submission may not be accepted. Bidders are therefore encouraged to verify those details carefully before submitting their bids.  \n4.
