How the Brazilian government buys software and systems

Rental or licensing of systems for public accounting, payroll, document tracking, health, education, and transparency portals. Beyond the monthly price, the tender notice (edital) requires data migration, implementation, training, and support — and often calls for a proof of concept, in which the system is demonstrated item by item before the evaluation committee. A bidder that fails the demonstration is disqualified, even with the lowest price.

What the tender notice usually requires

Typical activity code (CNAE): 62.01-5 (custom software development). 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 São Caetano do Sul (SP)

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.
