Sodi's partners CMS faced fraud before Tshwane deal: Just weeks before scoring a water treatment tender in Tshwane, a case of fraud was opened against Edwin Sodi’s partners, CMS Water and Engineering, for a fraudulent tender in Rustenburg.
CMS, a North West-based company owned by Rudolf Schoeman, was in 2019 accused of being appointed fraudulently without following the procurement rules for the upgrading and extension of Bospoort water treatment works in Rustenburg.
The Auditor-General SA flagged the company in May 2019 for irregularities in the awarding of the tender and for allegedly submitting invoices for work not done. “The Agsa had found that there were potential irregularities in the procurement and contract management of the project and discrepancies with regards to the documents presented to it which in the view of Agsa may be indicative of fraud. This included the [municipality] making payments to CMS for the acquisition of materials, which material CMS in turn, had not purchased.”
