Supply and Delivery of Operational Motor Vehicle
University of Zimbabwe wants 18 vehicles: 5 thirty-seater minibuses, 3 ambulances, 3 five-tonne trucks, 2 thirty-tonne trucks, 2 tippers, 2 TLBs and an executive minibus. US$1 000 bid security. Bids close 5 November 2026 at 07:45 CAT.
A substantial vehicle fleet purchase for the University of Zimbabwe — eighteen units across seven categories. The passenger vehicles: 5 thirty-seater minibuses and one executive minibus. The medical: 3 ambulances. The trucks: 2 thirty-tonne trucks, 3 five-tonne trucks and 2 tipper trucks. The plant: 2 TLBs (tractor-loader-backhoes). This is one of the larger capital purchases on the board and spans three different dealer specialisms — passenger, commercial and construction plant — so a single bidder would need breadth or partners. Only the seat counts and tonnages are given. No makes, models, engine or body specifications, and critically nothing on the ambulances, which need conversion and medical fittings rather than being bought off a forecourt. A bid security of 1 000 applies, bid validity is 90 days and the delivery period 2 months — tight for eighteen imported vehicles including conversions.
