For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
NFA is procuring routine stationery and store items through competitive bidding via ePADS.
The scale appears small to medium based on typical government stationery requirements. Bidders face a tight submission window (August 24, 2026) with same-day opening. This is a one-off annual procurement for standard consumables rather than specialized goods. Registration on ePADS is mandatory; vendors without prior registration should prioritize system setup immediately. The Least Cost Based Selection method means price will be the primary evaluation criterion.
Who can bid: The notice does not explicitly state eligibility restrictions. Typically, bidders must be registered on ePADS v2.0, possess a valid NTN (National Tax Number), and be registered with SECP or relevant commercial authority. Vendors must have demonstrated experience supplying stationery and store items. Any debarment or suspension by procurement authorities would render a bidder ineligible.
