SECTION 1: Special Conditions of Bid and Contract:: Division 1



5            LATE SUBMISSIONS

5.1          Quotations received late shall not be considered. A quotation will be considered
             late if it arrived only one second after 11:00 or any time thereafter. The tender
             (bid) box shall be locked at exactly 11:00 and quotations arriving late will not be
             considered under any circumstances. Quotations received late shall be returned
             unopened to the respondent. Respondents are therefore strongly advised to
             ensure that quotations be despatched allowing enough time for any unforeseen
             events that may delay the delivery of the quotation.

5.2          Quotations sent to the AgriSETA via normal post or any other mechanism shall
             be deemed to be received at the date and time of arrival at the AgriSETA
             premises (tender/bid box or reception). Quotations received at the physical
             address after the closing date and time of the quotation, shall therefore be
             deemed to be received late.

5.3          Bidders should, in preparing their bids, plan for delays related to the load
             shedding of electricity by ESKOM in order to submit bids on time. No late bids
             due to load shedding will be considered.

SECTION 1: Terms of Reference



                            TERMS OF REFERENCE (TOR)
TERMS OF REFERENC FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SET OF STANDARDISED
LEARNING MATERIAL FOR THE TRAINING OF MEMBERS OF AGRICULTURAL
COOPERATIVES WHICH ARE REGISTERED WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF
AGRICULTURE

1.       Background

         In many countries around the world co-operatives have proofed to be appropriate
         vehicles in promoting development and growth through which wealth and better
         living conditions for people are created with the involvement of themselves.
         Although agricultural co-operatives were legally founded and registered with the
         Department of Agriculture, their development met with less success due to a lack of
         an environment conducive to their development.
         One of the greatest challenges facing agricultural cooperatives is capacity building
         and training that can enable cooperatives to move towards self sustainable and
         viable agricultural enterprises.
         Cooperatives therefore can be instrumental to give the poor women, youth and
         other marginalized member of the community a purpose and pride as a result of
         their financial independence and contributions to the economy of the country, their
         successes can therefore eventually relieve government from budgetary and fiscal
         pressures regarding human development.
         In order to support these agricultural cooperative to develop toward financial
         independence and economic viable enterprises, the Department of Agriculture
         wishes to embark on a skills development strategy which will enable the members
         of the agricultural cooperative to conduct the enterprise by applying sound financial
         and management principles and practices.
         Therefore the Department of Agriculture conducted a skills needs analysis with a
         limited scope with fifteen registered cooperatives within five provinces. From this
         study, it was clear that the members recognise that there is a dire need for training
         to support them with the business aspect of their enterprises. The Department
         furthermore required that all training conducted, should be linked to unit standards
         which are registered on the National Qualifications Framework and that the
         learning material used in the training, adheres to general Outcomes Base
         Education and Training principles and that it is suitable to the needs and literacy
         levels of the target group.
         It is against this background that the AgriSETA undertakes to appoint, in
         conjunction with the Department of Agriculture, a service provider to assist with the
         development of learning material that will address the skills development needs of
         the target group.
2.       The Requirement for Skills Development

         In order to have information available on the skills development needs of the
         Cooperative and other information which might influence the skills development
         process of the target group, the Department of Agriculture commissioned a survey
         of limited scope to have a profile of the target group.
         Through this survey, it became clear that the Cooperatives are in dire need for
         training, specifically training for skills related to business principles as relevant in
         the operation of the Cooperative. These skills needs to include (but are not limited
         to) the following business aspects:
               Cooperatives (Governance, functions and roles of members)




                                                                                           Page 12

                   Human Resource Management

                   Operating within the community

         Based on the findings of the above-mentioned skills needs analysis, the
         Department of Agriculture has established he need to offer suitable skills
         development in the form of skills programs to members of Agricultural Co-
         operatives. The requirements for such skills development are that it is:
             Tailor made to address the needs of the target group

                   Aligned to unit standards

                   Learners will achieve credits on the National Learner Record Data Base

                   Supports Outcomes Based Education and Training principles

                   Supports Action-oriented Learning principles

                   That illiteracy will not form a barrier to learning and achieving learning
                    outcomes, even should learning be pitched at NQF level 2 of above.


3.       The need for Learning Material to Support Training Initiatives to the
         Cooperatives

         With the aim of supporting the above-mentioned skills development of the
         agricultural cooperatives, the AgriSETA recognises the importance of suitable
         learning material which meets the above-mentioned requirements to support the
         skills development process.
4.       Commissioning the Development of Suitable Learning Material:

         Taking the above into consideration, seven registered unit standards have been
         identified for development in a first phase of material development. It is however,




                                                                                           Page 13

         recognised that the seven unit standards would only address the most crucial
         training needs of the Agricultural Cooperatives. It is envisaged that the rest of the
         skills needs would be addressed during a next phase.
         Therefore, the AgriSETA is commissioning the development of suitable learning
         material in outcomes based format for institutional as well as workplace learning
         aligned to the following selected seven unit standards.

SECTION 1: Evaluation Process/Criteria



    ALL RESPONDENTS MUST TAKE NOTE OF THE EVALUATION PROCESS THAT WILL BE
                                 FOLLOWED


1           EVALUATION PROCESS
1.1         COMPLIANCE WITH MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

1.1.1       All quotations duly lodged will be examined to determine compliance with
            quotation requirements and conditions. Quotations with obvious deviations from
            the requirements/conditions, will be eliminated from further adjudication.

1.2         PRICE, FUNCTIONALITY AND PREFERENCE POINTS

1.2.1       All remaining quotations will be evaluated as follows:

1.2.2       80 Marks will be awarded for price and functionality, with 20 marks being
            awarded for specific goals set out in the preference points claim form(s).

1.2.3       Of the 80 marks awarded for price and functionality, 60 percent shall be awarded
            for functionality and 40 percent shall be awarded for price.

1.3         DETERMINATION OF PERCENTAGE FOR FUNCTIONALITY

1.3.1       The evaluation criteria and weights for functionality as indicated in the table in
            paragraph 2, will apply.

1.3.2       The percentage scored for functionality should be calculated as follows:

             Each panel member shall award values for each individual criterion on a
              score sheet. The value scored for each criterion shall be multiplied with the
              specified weighting for the relevant criterion to obtain the marks scored for
              the various criteria. These marks should be added to obtain the total score.
              The following formula should then be used to convert the total score to a
              percentage for functionality:

                        So
                 Ps       X Ap
                        Ms

                 where

                 Ps = percentage scored for functionality by quotation/proposal under
                 consideration

                 So = total score of quotation/proposal under consideration

                 Ms = maximum possible score

                 Ap = percentage allocated for functionality

             The percentages of each panel member shall be added together and divided
              by the number of panel members to establish the average percentage
              obtained by each individual respondent for functionality.




                                                                                          Page 19

SECTION 1: Evaluation Process/Criteria



             After calculation of the percentage for functionality, the prices of all
              quotations that obtained the minimum score for functionality should be taken
              into consideration.

1.4         ELIMINATION OF PROPOSALS ON GROUNDS OF FUNCTIONALITY

1.4.1       Quotations that score less than 60% of the marks available for functionality will
            be eliminated from further consideration. Marks will therefore not be awarded for
            their cost proposals or for preference.

1.5         DETERMINATION OF PERCENTAGE FOR PRICE

1.5.1       If appropriate, implied contract price adjustments will be made to the cost
            proposals of all remaining quotations.

1.5.2       The percentage scored for price shall be calculated as follows:

             The lowest acceptable quotation/proposal (adjusted or not), will obtain the
              maximum percentage allocated for price. The other quotations/proposals
              with higher prices (adjusted or not), will proportionately obtain lower
              percentages based on the following formula:

                 Ps  P min X Ap
                        Pt

                 where


                 Ps = percentage scored for price by quotation/proposal under consideration

                 Pmin = lowest acceptable quotation/proposal

                 Pt = price of quotation/proposal under consideration

                 Ap = percentage allocated for price

1.6         CALCULATION OF POINTS FOR FUNCTIONALITY AND PRICE

1.6.1       The percentages obtained for functionality shall be added to the percentage
            obtained for price to obtain a percentage out of 100, which in turn shall be
            converted to points out of 80 in terms of Regulation 8 of the Preferential
            Procurement Regulations.

1.6.2       The points scored out of 80 shall be calculated according to the following
            formula:

             The 80/20 preference point system (up to R500 000)

                                Hs  Rs
                 Ps  80(1             )
                                  Rs

                 where




                                                                                           Page 20

SECTION 1: Evaluation Process/Criteria



                 Ps = points scored for functionality and price of the quotation/proposal under
                 consideration

                 Hs = highest percentage scored by any acceptable respondent for
                 functionality and price

                 Rs = percentage scored for functionality and price by quotation/proposal
                 under consideration.

1.7         AWARDING OF POINTS FOR PREFERENCES/GOALS

1.7.1       Points for any specific goals will be awarded according to the formula(e)
            indicated in the preference points claim form(s).

1.8         COMBINING FUNCTIONALITY, PRICE AND PREFERENCE MARKS

1.8.1       The preference marks for each quotation will now be added to the price and
            functionality mark for that quotation (see 1.6.2).

1.8.2       The Quotation Evaluation Committee may recommend that the contract be
            awarded to the respondent obtaining the highest aggregate mark as determined
            by 1.8.1 or to a lower scoring quotation on justifiable grounds.

1.9         PRESENTATIONS

1.9.1       The AgriSETA reserves the right to invite respondents for presentations before
            the award of the quotation.

1.9.2       The AgriSETA has decided/may decide to have compulsory presentations made
            either by all respondents who have obtained at least 60% of the marks for
            functionality, or by the respondents ranked first, to third once the functionality,
            price and preference marks have been combined.

1.9.3       Presentations shall only affect the marks awarded for functionality. If the
            AgriSETA wishes to use presentations to discriminate between respondents, the
            evaluation criteria to be affected shall be determined in advance and due
            allowance made in the mark scheme and indicated in paragraph 2.

1.9.4       If the date of the presentation meeting is not indicated in the quotation
            document, at least three days notice will be given to respondents required to
            attend a presentation as well as the detail of the venue for the presentation.

1.9.5       Presentations will be made to the full Quotation Evaluation Committee.

1.9.6       Points determined by the presentation will be awarded to each respondent by
            each member of the Quotation Evaluation Committee and then an average
            calculated.

1.9.7       The price and preference marks for each respondent will be added to their
            functionality marks adjusted as a result of the presentation and the Quotation
            Evaluation Committee may recommend the respondent obtaining the highest
            aggregate or to a lower scoring quotation on justifiable grounds.

1.10        ADJUDICATION

1.10.1      The relevant award structure will consider the recommendations and make the
            final award. The successful respondent will usually be the service provider
            scoring the highest number of points or it may be a lower scoring quotation on
            justifiable grounds or no award at all.

            The annual turnover shall be the factor determining the ultimate classification and hence
            the points claimable. The company in this example would be classified as a “small”
            enterprise because of the turnover in lieu of the fact that according to the other
            parameters, the company could be classified as a “micro” or “very small” enterprise.

            For example: The company in the example will therefore be able to claim a maximum of
            1 points in paragraph 3.6 below.

3.5         Insert your claim in the table below based on the information contained in paragraph 3.3.

3.6         If required, the information supplied above must be substantiated by an internal auditor’s
            certificate and the relevant documentation.

            Total annual turnover for the previous financial year: R…………………….. (b)
