Another multimillion-rand Johannesburg contract set aside

Yet another City of Johannesburg contract worth hundreds of millions of rands is set to go to court as unsuccessful bidders — after learning the city intended to award the contract to a company supplying eight-year-old components — have petitioned the Johannesburg high court to stop the award of the contract.

Bona was one of four bidders that responded to the city’s invite, which according to court documents, saw a joint venture under the banner of Naledi emerge as the preferred bidder. This is despite the venture submitting a bid to supply second hand equipment instead of new equipment as required in the bid specifications.

Nthatisi Modingoane, the City of Johannesburg spokesperson, confirmed that the contract was awarded to Naledi, but said no contract was signed between the parties because of a complaint from one of the bidders. “Lastly, the award is subject to a judicial review application which was instituted by Bona Electronic Solutions. This application is currently pending before court,” he added.

The work included the procurement and installation of variable message sign monitors and a closed circuit television system for the Rea Vaya control room and bus stations.
