REQUEST FOR QUOTATION (RFQ)

This Request for Quotation (RFQ) issued by GreenCape seeks a service provider to develop the system requirements and solution architecture for an online platform designed to address skills priorities in the renewable energy sector. Funded by UK Pact, the platform aims to connect industry, Post School and Education Training (PSET) institutions, and Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs) to align graduate skills with industry competency needs.

• The project's primary objective is the creation of a digital communication hub to bridge the gap between industry demand for graduate skills and the outcomes provided by PSET institutions, specifically within the renewable energy sector.
• The scope of work requires the service provider to deliver a System Requirements Specification and Solution Architecture, with each phase allocated a duration of one month.
• The system must adhere to several mandatory technical requirements, including the use of a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) to ensure flexibility, a role-based security model for authorization, and a modular design to allow for phased implementation.
• The RFQ specifies a strict timeline for deliverables, with the System Requirement Specification Document due by 15 December 2023 and the Software Design and Architecture due by 30 January 2023, both requiring approval from GreenCape and EWSETA.
• Bidders will be evaluated based on a weighted scoring system consisting of functionality (50%), price (30%), and B-BBEE status (20%).
• The technical evaluation for functionality focuses on the expertise of the organization (30 points), the management structure and key personnel (20 points), and the proposed methodology and implementation plan (50 points).
