a) The final construction cost will only be determined when the construction work is completed. Two tenders were awarded in February 2017:
• Skukuza Safari Lodge main building tender: R 227 484 000 (VAT Incl.)
• Skukuza Safari Lodge bulk services: R 22 726 856 (VAT Incl.)
b) Yes. Tenders were issued in line with the Supply Chain Management Procedures and processes outlined by the National Treasury.
c) No. Tenders were only issued after the Bid Adjudication processes.
(2)
a) As and when costs are incurred, these costs will appear in the annual financial statements as “capital projects in progress.”
b) The entire amount is funded through the Departments Infrastructure Development Programme.
c) Year one.
Is it possible to have R250 000 000 in occupancy revenue within one year (Not even talking profit?)
