SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT (SCM) MATTERS  \nThe SCM indicated that:  \n􀁸 The briefing session is non-compulsory as indicated in the Tender advert. Non-attendance to the briefing session does not lead to disqualification of the bidders’ proposal/s.  \n􀁸 The tender is closing on 12 December 2024 at 11:00 . A bid which is submitted after 11:00 will be regarded as late andwill not be accepted by the DBE. The tender box is situated on the right-hand side before accessing the main entrance (from the gate) to the reception; and is clearly marked “TENDERS”. With regard to the submission of bigger documents, reception will call the SCM officials who would register the document/s in the Register for receiving the tender documents. It is the Bidder’s responsibility to ensure that their bid document is submitted at the right place on time.  \n􀁸 Bids must be submitted as hard copies; electronic/ emailed submissions will not be accepted by the DBE.  \n􀁸 One original bid proposal/ document will be sufficient.  \n􀁸 The discussions during the briefing session and the questions raised after the briefing session will be consolidated, responded to and uploaded on the Department’s website ([www.etenders.gov.za](www.etenders.gov.za) ), eTender Portal ([www.etenders.gov.za](www.etenders.gov.za) ) where the tender advert and documents are published. Bidders can still forward the clarity seeking questions regarding the bid until 12 days before the tender closes. The questions should be directed to [Tenders@dbe.gov.za](Tenders@dbe.gov.za).  \n􀁸 Bidders must read the 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 , stating that “failure to provide/ or comply with any of the above particulars may render the bid invalid”.  \n􀁸 Bidders must fully complete, sign and submit (with their bid document) the SBD forms which were uploaded with this tender document by the Department. Alteration or re-typing of the SBD forms is not allowed and will lead to the disqualification of the bid submitted. Bidders must complete the Pricing Schedule (Annexure A) and that total price inclusive of Value Added Tax (VAT) on Annexure A must also appear in the SBD3 form.  \n4.
