Zimbabwe Power Company wants sample testing and analysis of the old Deka pipeline at Hwange Power Station, turned around in 7 days. Bids close 9 September 2026 at 14:00 CAT.

Zimbabwe Power Company wants a testing house to sample and analyse the old Deka pipeline, which feeds Hwange Power Station. The requirement is written as a single line — sample testing of the Deka old pipeline — with the work based at Hwange Power Station. It is quoted against the Testing and Inspection Services and equipment calibration supplier categories, funded from ZPC's internally generated funds. The stated delivery period is 7 days and quotations stay valid for 30 days. Nothing published says how many samples are wanted, which analytes are to be tested for, or whether the sampling itself is the bidder's job. Those are the terms a price depends on.

Moderate 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 form fee is listed as 0. No document fee or bid security appears in what was published, though the full document was not available to confirm.

• The scope is one line with no sample count, no analyte list and no standard named, so quotations will not be comparable unless the full document sets them out.
• Seven days covers sampling, laboratory work and reporting on a pipeline at Hwange, which is a long way from most laboratories.
• The notice does not say whether the bidder collects the samples or ZPC supplies them.
