This tender invites bids from eligible suppliers for the supply of stationery items to the Balochistan Education Foundation in Quetta. The procurement covers a total of six different stationery items essential for the foundation's operational needs. The process is fully electronic, requiring bidders to submit their bids online through the Electronic Public Procurement System (EPPS) of BPPRA, with no physical bids accepted.

Bidders must demonstrate experience with at least three assignments of similar nature and complexity, each with a turnover of PKR 40 million in the last five years. The bidding firm must be on the Active Taxpayer List and hold a valid Sales Tax Certificate. Joint ventures are not allowed, and firms blacklisted by any Pakistani procuring agency will be disqualified. A bid security of 2% of the bid value is mandatory, payable via Call Deposit Receipt (CDR) from a scheduled bank. For compliance, bidders should ensure their PEC registration aligns with the required category for goods supply and maintain an active FBR ATL status for the fiscal year 2025-26. This is crucial to avoid disqualification during the technical evaluation phase. The tender fee is waived, but strict adherence to documentation and bid security submission is essential.

Pro-Tip: Ensure your bid security is correctly formatted and submitted as a Call Deposit Receipt from a scheduled bank, as missing or incorrect bid security is a common reason for bid rejection. Also, verify your registration on the EPPS portal well in advance to avoid last-minute submission issues.
