Rural Works Department Tender

The required prior work experience for the bidder includes work performed as a prime contractor or sub-contractor on construction works of a similar nature and volume over the last five years. The bidder needs to provide a certificate from the Engineer-in-charge for the similar work experience. Specifically, the bidder should have experience in works similar to the ones described, such as construction of subgrade and earthen shoulders, granular sub-base, water-bound macadam, and other related works. For certain roles, the required experience is as follows: - Road Manager: Graduate in Civil Engineering with 2 years of experience in road/bridge works. - Bridge Engineer: Graduate in Civil Engineering with 5 years of experience in road/bridge works, if the length of the bridge is more than 15m. - Maintenance Engineer: Diploma in Civil Engineering with 3 years of experience in road/bridge works. - Works Supervisor: Matric or equivalent with 5 years of experience in road/bridge works, but 3 years of experience is also mentioned. The value and percentage of similar works completed are not explicitly mentioned, but the bidder's experience is considered in terms of the maximum value of civil engineering works executed in any one year during the last five financial years, updated at 8% per year to the price level of the preceding current financial year. Additionally, the bidder is required to have achieved a minimum annual financial turnover of 50% of the amount put to bid, with at least 50% of this turnover being from civil engineering construction works. The available bid capacity is calculated as: Assessed Available Bid capacity = (A*N*M - B), where A is the maximum value of civil engineering works executed, N is the number of years prescribed for completion, and M is 3. The bidder is also required to invest money from their own resources, with a minimum of 25% of the contract value.
