For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
PLIC is procuring nationwide telemedicine and e-pharmacy services for insurance members and corporate clients via a two-year framework contract with one-year extension option.
Three regional lots allow modular bidding. Scale appears substantial given PLIC's member base and corporate sector coverage. Notably, the tender requires exclusive submission via e-Procurement System with uniform PKR 100,000 bid security per lot, keeping entry cost predictable. Service providers must serve members nationwide regardless of their assigned lot territory, implying scalability requirements. This is a recurring, renewal-eligible engagement offering multi-year visibility.
Who can bid: Only bidders registered and enrolled as suppliers on the Punjab e-Procurement System may participate. Registration is free. The RFP does not specify SECP, NTN or sectoral licensing requirements, but typically telemedicine and pharmacy service providers operating in Pakistan must hold relevant regulatory approval from the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council and Pakistan Pharmacy Council respectively.
