The company will not be responsible for credit extended to employees. The contract includes space provision for the chemist shop with furniture and fixtures. The contract period is one year with possible renewal for two more years based on satisfactory performance. Eligibility requires suppliers to be active in the FBR Active Taxpayer List (ATL) and to submit a valid drug license. Bidders must provide documentary evidence such as registered business proof, valid drug license, banker's certificate, NTN, and telephone number. The bid must include a fixed bid bond of Rs. 10,000 and a performance bond of Rs. 25,000.
