SECTION 3: BACKGROUND, PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF RFB
3.1 Background
Since its inception 24 years ago, Airports Company South Africa Limited (ACSA) has transformed into a focused,
profitable and commercial enterprise that is market-driven and customer service oriented. The company was
formed in 1993 as a public company under the Companies Act of 1973, as amended, and the Airports Company
Act of 1993, as amended.
ACSA owns and operates South Africa’s nine principal airports, comprised of the country’s major international
airports, namely; O.R. Tambo (ORTIA), Cape Town (CTIA) and King Shaka (KSIA) and the smaller regional
airports, namely; Bram Fischer (Bram), Upington (UTN), Port Elizabeth (PLZ), East London Airport (ELN), George
Airport (GRJ) and Kimberley Airport (KMB). ACSA’s registered corporate office operates from Bedfordview.
ACSA is focused on creating and operating world-class airports measuring up to international standards. This is
evidenced by ACSA’s participation in selected airport management. In February 2006, ACSA and a consortium
comprising an Indian company GVK and South African listed company, Bidvest, won a concession to manage
Mumbai International Airport (MIAL).
In addition, ACSA is extensively involved in the expansion, maintenance and management of Guarulhos
International Airport (Guarulhos) in Brazil. Guarulhos is currently the largest international airport in Latin America.
An MOU was signed with Ghana in 2014 for the provision of project management oversight as well as technical
and management consulting services. An operational readiness and transfer programme has been submitted and
approved which allows ACSA specialists to provide support services to the respective management teams to
plan, prepare and transition to the new Terminal 3 currently being built at Khotoka International Airport in Ghana
which is due to be completed and commissioned in April 2018.
ACSA’s involvement at the airport in Mthatha kicked off in October 2016 and a 5-year business plan is currently
being developed.
Internally ACSA recently introduced a new governance framework and operating model. It is hoped that the new model will assist ACSA to achieve its business strategy, supported by three business pillars:

3.2 Passenger Numbers
3.3 Introduction
On-airport advertising can entertain and engage passengers whilst generating additional commercial revenues
for airports.
Brands must be assured of the following in order to lure them to the airport:
Airports Company South Africa’s 9 airports with total passenger numbers in 2016
OR Tambo International

1. Their target market will be reached through airport advertising
Airports offer access to affluent and influential individuals difficult to reach with most other media
2. The airport travellers will be in a receptive frame of mind to absorb the brand messaging
Most passengers are attentive to airport branding due to the high dwell time associated with air travel
3. The opportunities offered are visible and offer brands a variety of options in terms of the type of
mediums and sizes available
Due to the sheer size of terminal buildings and the surrounding precinct, airports generally offer a wide
variety of both location and scale to brands
4. Airport advertising is comparatively well priced
Given the unique attributes of the airport users (high LSM) and the fact that the International Airports’
terminals are operational on a 24-hour basis, brands are guaranteed value for money and thus a
comparatively higher return on spend at airports
These attributes serve to cement the notion that airport advertising offers a powerful environment in which
brands are able to communicate with current and potential consumers.
3.4 ACSA’s Advertising Strategy
ACSA intends to increase its annual advertising income from approximately R 200 Million (current) per annum
to R 300 Million (market potential) per annum by implementing a structural and tactical intervention in the
advertising business model to unlock revenue potential.
3.4.1 The strategic objectives are to:
• Provide the highest return on investment for advertisers
• Increase the value of airport advertising through decluttering
• Invest in digital platforms
• Balance income maximisation with the enhancement to the passenger journey
• Achieve ACSA’s corporate transformation objectives
3.4.2 These strategic objectives will be achieved through:
Page 18
➢ Selecting specialists who will differentiate airports from their broader Out-Of-Home or media offering
➢ Migrate to fewer but more effective touchpoints moving from the current multi-concession model to
a limited concession model
➢ Decluttering of Airports through the award of exclusive zones as opposed to individual sites. In this
regard ACSA requires a balance between using spaces for commercial advertising, creating a
destination for arriving and departing passengers (attached as Annexure 1 are plans for ORTIA to be
considered) and the integration of the retail offerings to be marketed on airport (attached as Annexure 2
is a sample of current retail marketing ). These objectives should be incorporated into a holistic digital
plan where the airport destination and retail offering are given exclusive loops for an appropriately
discounted charge.
➢ Leverage National Footprint through the award of zones across the network of 9 airports
➢ Defined Route to Market by providing exclusivity to Successful Bidders (Concessionaire)
➢ Transformation through the application of prequalification criteria and transformation imperatives

3.7 Scope of RFB
3.7.1 Overview of the Scope of the RFB
1. Background of the Business Case
Historically ACSA’s advertising division operated on a hybrid model where ACSA sold sites in addition to
contracting with multiple media owners able to secure sites for brands and advertisers at each airport
location.
These multiple touch points in reaching advertisers resulted in clutter and erratic pricing which caused
confusion in the market and lead to many brands withdrawing from the airports. Further exacerbating
matters was the resultant price wars which saw a decline in revenues and an increase in visual clutter.
After international and local research and surveys, the intent is to move away from the multi-concessionary
platform to a limited concession model with a maximum of four (4) opportunities able to serve across the
network of airports. These four distinct opportunities will provide concessionaires an exclusive zone
meeting advertiser needs and the ability to tailor solutions for advertisers.
The many long -term advertising concession agreements have expired across the network of airports and
have been extended and contracted for until December 2017. This Bid aims to source advertising
concessionaires who will run these concessions for a period of ten years across the network of airports.
2. Details of Advertising Opportunities
The subject opportunities are at all ACSA owned Airports. These opportunities are made up as follows:
(1) International portfolio across the network of airports;
Comprising approximately 60 sites at OR Tambo, Cape Town International and King Shaka
International Airports with an estimated current revenue to ACSA of R 4.1 Million per month.
Page 23
The monthly minimum rentals required for this opportunity in terms of this RFB is R 3.5 Million per
month.
(2) Domestic Departures portfolio across the network of airports;
Comprising approximately 127 sites across the network of 9 airports with an estimated current
revenue to ACSA of R 3.7 Million per month.
The monthy minimum rentals required for this opportunity in terms of this RFB is R 3.5 Million per
month.
(3) Domestic Arrivals portfolio across the network of airports;
Comprising approximately 107 sites across the network of 9 airports with an estimated current
revenue to ACSA of R 3.9 Million per month
The monthy minimum rentals required for this opportunity in terms of this RFB is R 3.5 Million per
month.
(4) Outdoor portfolio across the network of airports
Comprising approximately 149 sites across the network of 9 airports with an estimated current
revenue to ACSA of R 4.5 Million per month
The monthy minimum rentals required for this opportunity in terms of this RFB is R 4 Million per
month.

3.8.7 The Successful Bidder will have to abide by the predetermined restrictions as municipal by-laws in outdoor opportunities at Cape Town International Airport. The external sites implementation plans are guided by the City of Cape Town Outdoor Signage By-Law as promulgated from time to time. Cape Town International Airport has been re-designated from Partial to Minimum Control in terms of Schedule 1 of the Outdoor Advertising and Signage By-law.
Page 24
The City of Cape Town and Cape Town International Airport have reached an agreement and together have work-shopped an Outdoor Advertising Signage Master Plan (SMP) which allows for 20 (twenty) freestanding outdoor billboards. The maximum size of each freestanding billboard is 36sqm (thirty-six square meters) unless an individual billboard is double-sided in which case the maximum size will be 36 sqm per side with the total advertising space of 72 sqm (seventy-two square meters). Internal illumination of free standing billboards is permissible. The Signage Master Plan (SMP) agreed with the City of Cape Town also allows for 16 (sixteen) flat custom made wall signs. Currently all flat wall signs are larger than 54 sqm (fifty-four square meters) and each sign will require a waiver to accommodate the increased size. The increased size is supported in the SMP and will be considered for approval only once the individual signage applications are submitted to the City of Cape Town. Further, all other controlling regulations in Schedule 4 of the By-Law must be adhered to. The successful Bidder will be responsible for all application costs related to the approval of the outdoor SMP and any variations thereto. Cape Town International Airport will be the legal permit holder for such approvals granted.
3.8.8 The Successful Bidder will have to abide by the predetermined restrictions as municipal by-laws in outdoor opportunities at King Shaka International Airport. The external sites implementation is guided by the eThekwini Municipal by-laws. King Shaka International Airport has been designated a Special Advertising Zone, the provisions for which are not currently included in the by-laws. The airport is currently involved in a process with the municipality to define such provisions. On award, the Bidder’s proposed Master Plan is to be submitted to eThekwini Municipality for approval along with accompanying reports per site which shall include but not be limited to traffic impact assessments, structural engineering diagrams, elevation diagrams etc. The Bidder is to meet the conditions with the eThekwini Municipality. The successful Bidder will thus be responsible for all application costs related to their proposed Master Plan for the outdoor opportunity at King Shaka International Airport. King Shaka International Airport will be the legal permit holder for such approvals granted.
3.8.9 The Successful Bidder must, on award of the Outdoor Opportunity abide by the provisions of all applicable Municipal by-laws in the Municipalities where OR Tambo International Airport (ORTIA), Port Elizabeth (PLZ), East London (ELN), George (GRJ), Bloemfontein (BLM), Kimberley (KMB) and Upington (UPN) Airports are located The bidder will be responsible for all applications and associated costs related to the approval of the Outdoor Master Plans at the airports as listed. ACSA shall in all instances remain the legal permit holder for such approvals granted.
3.8.10 The Successful Bidder/s who is/are awarded the Domestic Arrivals, Domestic Departures and/or the International Opportunity in terms of this RFB must take cognisance of the Ambiance elements currently being driven by the respective airports. Ambiance projects are being rolled out at OR Tambo International Airport (ORTIA), Cape Town International Airport (CTIA) and King Shaka International Airport (KSIA).
Bidders are required to factor into their Master Plan design elements associated with the Ambiance themes at the respective airports. Extracts from the Ambiance Projects at the three international airports (ORTIA, CTIA and KSIA) are included as Schedule 5
Page 25
3.8.11 Bidders who are awarded the Domestic Arrivals, Domestic Departures and / or the International Opportunity are to take cognisance of the installation of “Infogate Pods” within these zones. Any advertising opportunities available on these platforms will become available to the Successful Bidder within these zones on award. The envisaged locations of these “Infogate Pods” are included as Schedule 6
3.8.12 Wi-Fi advertising opportunities are specifically excluded from this RFB and Bidders are hereby advised that this opportunity will be pursued separately by ACSA
3.8.13 Any extensions or improvements to any of the airports passenger terminals during the lease period will be included and will form part of the concession from commencement of operations as these areas will have extended the current terminals. However, the minimum monthly rental at date of commissioning will be increased by the proportion of the new terminal area created in proportion to the existing and new areas at a discount of 25% e.g., 10,000 sqm (ten thousand square meters) of new area divided by 100,000 sqm (one hundred square meters) (i.e. 10,000 sqm new area plus 90,000 sqm existing area) = 10% to be further discounted by 25% = 7.5%. Therefore, should the existing rental on operationalizing the extended area be R 2 Million (two million rand) per month such existing rental shall be increased by 7.5% to R 2,150 Million (two million, one hundred and fifty thousand rand) per month. Should the existing lease anniversary rental escalation be less than 6 months away, the escalation will only be computed on the existing rentals i.e. R 2 Million (two million rand) per month; however, all future annual escalations will thereafter be on the total rentals payable which shall include the rental applicable to the new area.
3.8.14 Successful Bidders may sub-contract with current Concessionaires for a period not exceeding 6 months from date of award whilst reorganising the Master Plans submitted as part of this RFB
3.8.15 At the expiry of the 6 month period described in Point 3.8.14, Bidders may not sub-contract more than 25% of the awarded opportunity
3.8.16 Sub-contracting may only take place with entities having the same or better B-BBEE status level as the Successful Bidder
3.8.17 In terms of Point 3.8.14 and 3.8.15 ACSA will calculate turnovers due based on turnover generated by the sub-contractor and not based on revenue received by the Bidder
3.8.18 The MAC transformation targets increase each year and bidders will be required to meet them annually, failing which, at ACSA’s election the bidder will be placed in breach with an option to terminate the lease. In addition, a penalty of 5% of the bidding entities turnover will become payable.
3.8.19 The successful bidders will also be required to progress their B-BBEE status at award to a minimum of Level 3 in terms of timetable agreed with ACSA on award of any opportunity; failing which, breach provisions and penalties as described above will apply.

5.5 Price and B-BBEE
5.5.1 This stage of the evaluation process will be scored on a preference point system of 50/50, where Price
will account for 50 points, whilst preference (B-BBEE) will account for the remaining 50 points. The award
of business will be made to the Bidder which has scored the highest overall points for this stage of the
evaluation, unless the application of transformation imperatives justifies an award to another bidder or
ACSA splits the award or cancels the bid, etcetera
5.5.2 ACSA has determined the rental terms it requires from each of the Advertising Opportunities. Potential
Bidders are therefore to determine whether their particular advertising concepts can sustain the rental
required by ACSA and to only submit a proposal if they irrevocably meet the rental terms. The rental terms
include a minimum monthly guaranteed rental and a percentage of turnover rental whereby the Successful
Bidder will be required to pay an additional quarterly top-up should the turnover rental be greater than the
minimum monthly guaranteed rental for the quarter.
5.5.3 The quantum of the minimum monthly guaranteed rental and the percentage of turnover rental applicable
are as stated in the relevant section of Appendix O (Rent Schedule)
5.5.4 It is ACSA’s intention to establish business relationships on sustainable rental terms such that a “win-win”
partnership exists whereby both ACSA and the Successful Bidder are committed to growing revenue for
mutual benefit. It is for this reason that a minimum monthly guaranteed rental and a percentage of turnover
rental have been prescribed to enable the financial evaluation of bids to be undertaken on the basis of
Page 36
the extent to which the bidder will grow ACSA’s share of the advertising revenue by virtue of the turnover
rental becoming payable to ACSA.
5.5.5 Minimum monthly guaranteed rental will be allocated 40 points out of the available 50 points for Price.
The Bidder that submits the highest starting minimum monthly guaranteed rental will be allocated 40
points. The points allocated to the lower minimum monthly guaranteed rental offer by the remaining
bidders will be allocated lower in proportion to the higher minimum monthly guaranteed rental offered by
the highest bidder. The minimum monthly rental proposed by Bidders in month one of the first year will
be used to determine the points scored. The minimum rental will remain and escalate annually as per the
annual CPI increase on every lease anniversary and will be capped at a minimum of 5% and a maximum
of 7%.
5.5.6 Percentage of Turnover Rental proposed will be allocated 10 points out of the available 50 points for
Price. The Bidder that submits the highest percentage of turnover rental will be allocated 10 points. The
Bidder should submit only one turnover percentage that will be applicable throughout the lease period.
The points allocated to the percentage of turnover rental offered by the other Bidders will be in proportion
to the percentage of turnover rental offered by the highest bidder. The percentage of turnover rental
proposed by bidders from month one of the first year and which remains consistent throughout the lease
period will be used to determine the points scored. The percentage of turnover rental proposed by the
Bidder cannot be reduced in subsequent months or years.
5.6 Transformation Imperatives
Bidders must first meet the Mandatory Administrative Requirements (Stage 1), Minimum Functionality Threshold (Stage 2) and have been scored for the 50/50 Preferential points for Price and B-BBEE (Stage 3).
5.6.1 Award for each opportunity will be made to the Bidder scoring the highest combined points for Price (50 points) and B-BBEE (50 points)
5.6.2 No Bidder will be awarded more than 2 opportunities
5.6.3 Bidders will be awarded opportunities according to their Order of Preference (Appendix Q) where they have qualified for the award of 2 or more opportunities
5.6.4 5.6.5 Should it be that there are no other qualifying Bidders who have 1 or less opportunities, the
Advertising Opportunities may be awarded to Bidders who will have 2 or more opportunities post award
