Supply of Degree Folders for International Islamic University Islamabad

This tender invites bids for the supply of 5,000 degree folders to the International Islamic University Islamabad, under the Stationery & Printing category. The procurement is based in Islamabad and managed by the university's procurement department. The scope includes manufacturing degree folders with precise specifications: 27 × 35 cm size, made of hardboard with a waterproof rexine or PU leather outer cover, and a satin inner lining in university green (Pantone 342C). The folders require deep-die gold embossing of the IIUI logo and text, a die-cut transparent PVC window for name display, and a 3mm sponge padding for a soft touch. The stitching and embossing quality are critical, with a minimum technical score of 70 marks required to qualify for financial evaluation. Delivery is expected within 20-30 days of purchase order issuance, with inspection by the university's purchase committee. Bidders must be registered with FBR, active on the ATL, and have 3-5 years of relevant experience in printing or stationery manufacturing. PEC category is not explicitly mentioned, but compliance with FBR registration and ATL status is mandatory. The tender requires submission of samples matching the university's logo color and dimensions, along with financial and technical documents. The financial year 2025-26 requirements include valid NTN, GST registration, and a performance security of 10% of contract value. Submission deadline is set for 16th March 2026 at 10:30 AM, with bid opening at 11:00 AM on the same day at the Deputy Director (Purchase & Store) office, Admin Block, IIUI, H-10, Islamabad. Bidders must submit technical and financial proposals separately via EPADS, with samples and bid security delivered physically to Room #108, Admin Block. Pro-Tip: Ensure your sample folder strictly matches the university's specifications, especially the Pantone green color and embossing quality, as this is a common reason for disqualification. Also, double-check the Call Deposit Receipt and bid security amounts to avoid rejection on technical grounds.
