Administrative Law [2018] ZAGPPHC 861

Indwe Aviation (Pty) Ltd v Minister of Environmental Affairs and Another (14576/2017)

Indwe Aviation (Pty) Ltd v Minister of Environmental Affairs and Another (14576/2017) [2018] ZAGPPHC 861 (27 November 2018)

The court found that the applicant was unfairly excluded at the functionality stage of the tender process due to a mechanical and irrational approach to scoring references and double standards applied by the Bid Evaluation Committee. The applicant was not afforded the same opportunities as the second respondent to supplement its bid, and relevant experience through its relationship with the Titan Helicopter Group was disregarded. The tender was awarded at a substantially higher price, contrary to the principles of fairness, transparency, and cost-effectiveness required by section 217 of the C…

Raubex Construction (Pty) Ltd v Road Agency Limpopo SOC and Another (4460/2017)

Raubex Construction (Pty) Ltd v Road Agency Limpopo SOC and Another (4460/2017) [2018] ZALMPPHC 1 (18 January 2018)

The court found that the tender process lapsed when the validity period expired without an award, and that the subsequent attempt to extend the validity period after expiry was unlawful and contrary to the requirements of fairness, transparency, and competitiveness under section 217(1) of the Constitution. The process followed by the first respondent in awarding the tender to the second respondent was flawed, as it excluded tenderers who did not consent to the extension and failed to comply with the constitutional and legislative procurement framework. The award of the tender was therefore in…

Administrative Law [2015] ZAECBHC 30

Sizisa Ukhanyo Trading 389 CC v Department of Sports, Recreation, Arts And Culture, Province of the Eastern Cape (535/12)

Sizisa Ukhanyo Trading 389 CC v Department of Sports, Recreation, Arts And Culture, Province of the Eastern Cape (535/12) [2015] ZAECBHC 30 (6 October 2015)

The court found that the special condition in the tender was manifestly ambiguous, as it failed to specify the requirements for the letters from associations and created confusion among tenderers. This ambiguity resulted in unfairness, as the criteria for compliance were not applied consistently, leading to the exclusion of some tenderers and the inclusion of the appellant. The court held that the tender process did not meet the standards of fairness, equity, transparency, and competitiveness required by section 217 of the Constitution and the Preferential Procurement Policy Framework Act. Co…
