One gas chromatography–mass spectrometer system for the Zimbabwe Energy Regulatory Authority, delivered to Harare. The delivery period is 3 months, funded from internally generated funds, and quotations must stay valid 60 days. It runs under the Competitive Bidding Method, with a **bid security of 1 000** — currency not stated. The single line item repeats the title. The full tender document was not available to us, and no analytical specification is published. Download it from the source before quoting; a GC-MS is configured entirely around what it must measure.

High effort to bid.

Written from the published notice — the full tender document was not available to us. Download it from the source before bidding: eligibility rules, fees and specifications may only appear there.

• Bid security of 1 000 — the notice does not state the currency, so confirm it and the acceptable form from the tender document

• No analytical specification is published — no mass range, detector type, injector configuration, columns, sensitivity requirement or intended methods, and a GC-MS is selected on all of those.
• For an energy regulator the instrument is presumably for fuel testing, which usually implies specific standard methods; none is named.
• The notice does not say whether installation, commissioning, training, consumables, gases or a service contract are in scope — all substantial on an instrument of this class.
• A bid security is required; confirm the currency and instrument.
• Three months to deliver an imported analytical instrument is tight.
