The Track & Trace solution will provide real-time tracking of banknote sheets and notes from raw paper to final packaging, integrating with printing machines and existing systems.

Bidders must meet stringent eligibility criteria including a minimum 5-year legal existence, operational presence in Pakistan, average annual turnover of PKR 500 million, and proven experience in ERP and Track & Trace implementations in manufacturing industries. The project will follow a two-stage bidding process with quality and cost-based selection. The contract includes a 4-month hypercare support period post go-live and a 5-year managed services SLA.
