How the Brazilian government buys air conditioning

Purchase and installation of units, as well as preventive maintenance contracts with a PMOC (the maintenance, operation, and control plan for air-conditioning systems). When the scope includes installation, it also covers electrical infrastructure, mounting brackets, and disposal of the old equipment. Maintenance is a continuing service, with documented monthly visits.

What the tender notice usually requires

Typical activity code (CNAE): 43.22-3 (installation of air-conditioning systems). Make sure the company's registered business purpose covers the activity before bidding — an incompatible CNAE is grounds for disqualification.

How to prepare to bid in Rio Grande do Sul

Follow new publications daily: between the notice and the bid deadline there are usually about eight business days, and much of that time goes into gathering documents. Download the tender notice and the terms of reference from each tender page, check the specification item by item and work out your minimum price before the bidding phase — including taxes, freight, payment terms and the margin that makes the contract viable.

Micro and small businesses (ME/EPP) get preferential treatment under Brazilian law: a tie preference, extra time to fix tax certificates and, in smaller purchases, exclusive participation. See the step-by-step guide how to participate in a tender.
