This document outlines the eligibility and compliance criteria for contractors involved in pharmacy business operations. It is essential for contractors to meet specific registration, financial, and operational standards to qualify for technical proposals. Contractors must be registered with SECP and DGDP, with a preference for those having multiple years of experience and a broad geographical spread across Pakistan. The criteria emphasize the importance of having a robust organizational structure, including employment of staff, warehouse facilities with temperature control, and cold chain enabled transport to ensure the daily supply of medical store items. The tender also requires proof of inventory value and tax compliance, highlighting the need for financial stability and transparency. Compliance with PEC categories and FBR registration is critical, along with maintaining an active tax payer list and direct POS integration with FBR. The tender advises contractors to ensure their firms are not blacklisted and have a clean legal record. Annual audited financial statements and valid drug selling licenses are mandatory, reflecting the regulatory rigor in pharmaceutical procurement. The submission deadline is set with a clear timeline for technical and financial bid openings. Contractors should prepare their documents meticulously, including Earnest Money and Call Deposit Receipts, to avoid disqualification. The physical submission method requires sealed envelopes delivered to the specified office address. Pro-Tip: Verify the exact stamp duty and notarization requirements on judicial papers, as these are often overlooked but crucial for bid acceptance. Also, ensure all supporting documents are arranged in the specified sequence to facilitate smooth evaluation.
