IBA Karachi seeks laptop bag suppliers in a straightforward supply tender with ~6-week lead time.
Single-envelope process reduces complexity. Institutional scale suggests moderate order volume for protective cases; notable requirement is dual submission (electronic + physical bid security). Tight final delivery window (3pm day-of-opening) means logistics planning critical. Non-recurring procurement with standard government procurement portal submission.
Who can bid: Active taxpayers with NTN registration (FBR) and valid SRB or GST certificates required. Manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers eligible. Sindh-registered entities preferred. Typically, firms must demonstrate tax compliance history and GST registration validity for institutional procurement of this scale.
