6. CERTIFICATE OF INDEPENDENT BID DETERMINATION (SBD9)
1 This Standard Bidding Document (SBD) must form part of all bids¹ invited.
2 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.
3 Treasury Regulation 16A9 prescribes that accounting officers and accounting authorities must take all
reasonable steps to prevent abuse of the supply chain management system and authorizes
accounting officers and accounting authorities to:
(a) disregard the bid of any bidder if that bidder, or any of its directors have abused the institution’s
supply chain management system and or committed fraud or any other improper conduct in
relation to such system.
(b) cancel a contract awarded to a supplier of goods and services if the supplier committed any
corrupt or fraudulent act during the bidding process or the execution of that contract.
4 This SBD 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.
5 In order to give effect to the above, the attached Certificate of Bid Determination (SBD 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.
