# Stackable fixed auditorium chairs for the Bahia Fire Brigade

The Bahia Military Fire Brigade is procuring fixed, stackable auditorium chairs through an open electronic auction. The official PNCP record identifies an estimated total of BRL 58,525.50 and an open procurement with no result recorded. The proposals open on 27 October 2026 at 08:00 Brasília time and close on 29 October 2026 at 10:00 Brasília time. The API’s item-detail route returned no item record, and the source page itself was blocked, so quantities, chair specifications, delivery terms and detailed qualification rules are unavailable. The official API defines these times as Brasília time; the closing instant is 13:00 UTC.
