The South African Revenue Service (SARS) has issued a tender for the Engineering, Designing, and Installation of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Systems at its offices.
Deadline: 9 December 2024
A non-compulsory briefing session will be held virtually via a Microsoft Teams meeting on Friday, 15 November at 11am.
SARS states that they are in the process of establishing green alternative power sources for its various offices nationwide. In an effort to achieve this objective, SARS successfully appointed various service providers for the supply of necessary components, namely the solar panels, inverters and batteries.
However, it’s essential to highlight that these acquired materials, further supplementary materials, and professional installation services are required to bring the project to achievement.
It is on this basis that SARS is looking to establish a panel of contractors that will be requested on an ad hoc basis for engineering, designing and installation of a solar photovoltaic (PV) system in various SARS offices. This project is meant to improve the sustainability of the facilities, reduce their carbon footprint, lower the operating costs of the facilities and reduce generator diesel consumption during loadshedding.
Bidders will be responsible for the full engineering and design of the solar PV system according to applicable local and international standards for the identified site/s.
Construction work and installation of equipment on site, including installation of PV panels, inverters, mounting structure, cabling, mounting hardware and infrastructure, reticulation, grid connection works, and remote monitoring and control.
The panellists will be grouped into three (3) regions, and bidders can submit proposals for one (1) or more regions.
- Region 1: Gauteng
- Region 2: Eastern Cape, Free State Northern Cape, and Western Cape
- Region 3: KZN, Limpopo, Mpumalanga and North West
The successful bidder will be appointed for a period of three (3) years, subject to SARS terms and conditions.
The physical bid proposal submissions must be deposited in the SARS tender box situated at the main entrance of the address below:
SARS Procurement Tender Office,
