- This specification covers the supply and delivery of rechargeable torches, IP54/IP65 rated

A Tender determined to be substantially non-responsive will be rejected by the Authority and may not subsequently be made responsive by the Tenderer by correction of the non-conformity.
The Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority may accept any non-material deviation or reservation provided that the acceptance thereof does not prejudice or affect the relative ranking order of any tender in the evaluation of Tenders.
