Welcome to our CIDB registration services.
We are here to help you with the registration of your CIDB grade 2.
In order to qualify for this grade, you need to have completed at least one single large construction project between the values of R 130, 000 to R450, 000 within the past 5 years.
Projects completed more than 5 years ago do not qualify and as such, are not considered by the CIDB.
The CIDB requires the following documents when applying for the CIDB grade 2.
The CIDB does not require Annual Financial Statements for the CIDB grade 2 application.
For this reason, grade 2 applications do not need to meet the financial capability score elements and no financial sponsorships can be used with a CIDB grade 2 application.
Applicants can check on the progress of their application status by clicking on the CIDB’s website here.
The CIDB charges R450 for the application fee, as well as R250 for the annual fee. In total, it will cost you R700 in terms of the CIDB fees to process your application.
On our side, we charge R1,500 for our professional fees to assess, correct and submit your track record to the CIDB on your behalf.
We only charge you once we have submitted and sent you proof of submission in the form of a CIDB receipt, you may click here to see an example.
Works capability, refers to the Rand value of the single largest construction project ever carried out by your company within the past 5 years.
To qualify for the CIDB Grade 2’s works capability, you need to produce documentary evidence that proves that you did indeed satisfactorily complete the project.
This documentary evidence is what is referred to as the track record.
It has to be in the form of a signed project contract, sub-contract or award letter from the employer.
It must also be accompanied by a set of bank statement transactions highlighted, that add up to the exact contract value or the contract value plus any other variation orders.
A completion certificate must also form part of the track record to prove that the project was indeed completed satisfactorily.
A poorly constructed track record can make or break your CIDB grade 2 application.
You have the right to obtain the CIDB upgrade that you deserve within a reasonable time, provided, that all your paper work has been submitted in order.
