Supply of Office Furniture for National Logistic Cell Offices in Rawalpindi, Lahore and Karachi

The National Logistic Corporation Headquarters is procuring a comprehensive range of office furniture for its offices located in Rawalpindi, Lahore, and Karachi. This procurement includes items such as office tables, side racks, credenzas, director chairs, visitor chairs, wooden coat hangers, sofa sets, side tables, filing cabinets, workstations, staff chairs, wall cabinets, meeting tables, reception counters, and dining chairs. The furniture is specified to be made from high-quality materials including Mahogany wood veneer, Sheesham wood frames, Acasia wood, and Tactile LMDF sheets with premium finishes and upholstery in approved leather colors. The scope covers delivery, installation, and pre-delivery inspections primarily at Rawalpindi or Islamabad, with the supplier bearing any additional inspection costs outside these locations. The delivery period is set at 60 days from the issuance of the Letter of Acceptance or contract award. Bidders must submit separate technical and financial bids, ensuring all items are quoted completely and in compliance with the detailed specifications provided. The tender requires earnest money of Rs 500,000 and a tender fee of Rs 2,000, both payable via bank draft in favor of the National Logistic Corporation HQ Main Account. Eligibility criteria include proof of at least five years of experience in manufacturing or selling office furniture, financial capability with audited reports showing a minimum of Rs 100 million turnover over the last three financial years, and valid NTN/STRN registration with active tax filing status. Firms must also provide samples for technical qualification before financial bids are opened. The submission deadline is strictly enforced, with tenders to be delivered by hand or post to HQ NLC Rawalpindi. Late submissions will be rejected. A practical tip for bidders is to carefully prepare the comparison chart and ensure all technical data and samples are complete and compliant to avoid disqualification during evaluation. The contract includes a one-year comprehensive warranty supported by OEM documentation and a 5% performance bank guarantee upon award.
