This is a national-level procurement of specialty laboratory chemistry and PCR items for a cantonment healthcare facility.
The tender uses the EPADS e-bidding platform exclusively, requiring prior registration and electronic submission by September 7, 2026. The scope appears medium-scale and likely recurring as an annual FY budget allocation. Bidders should note the strict 11:00 AM deadline, mandatory e-submission, and requirement for bid security; manual submissions are explicitly rejected. This is a healthcare supply contract with specific technical specifications requiring laboratory-grade items.
Who can bid: Bidders must be registered on EPADS v2.0. The notice does not explicitly state PEC or SECP registration requirements; however, for procurement of laboratory items, bidders typically require relevant business registration (NTN), company incorporation documents, and proof of past similar supply experience or relevant certifications from pharmaceutical/laboratory regulatory bodies.
