1. This Municipal Bidding Document (MBD) must form part of all bids¹ invited.
1. Section 4 (1) (b) (iii) of the Competition Act No. 89 of 1998, as amended, prohibits an agreement
between, or concerted practice by, firms, or a decision by an association of firms, if it is between
parties in a horizontal relationship and if it involves collusive bidding (or bid rigging).² Collusive
bidding is a pe se prohibition meaning that it cannot be justified under any grounds.
2. Municipal Supply Regulation 38 (1) prescribes that a supply chain management policy must
provide measures for the combating of abuse of the supply chain management system, and must
enable the accounting officer, among others, to:
(b). reject the bid of any bidder if that bidder or any of its directors has abused the supply
chain management system of the municipality or municipal entity or has committed
any improper conduct in relation to such system; and
(c). cancel a contract awarded to a person if the person committed any corrupt or
fraudulent act during the bidding process or the execution of the contract.
3. This MBD serves as a certificate of declaration that would be used by institutions to ensure that,
when bids are considered, reasonable steps are taken to prevent any form of bid-rigging.
4. In order to give effect to the above, the attached Certificate of Bid Determination (MBD 9)
must be completed and submitted with the bid:
¹ Includes price quotations, advertised competitive bids, limited bids and proposals.
² Bid rigging (or collusive bidding) occurs when businesses, that would otherwise be expected to compete, secretly conspire to raise prices or lower
the quality of goods and / or services for purchasers who wish to acquire goods and / or services through a bidding process. Bid rigging is, therefore,
an agreement between competitors not to compete.
