JSMU seeks suppliers for convocation ceremony material items via ePADS.
The tender shows standard university procurement scale with Rs. 70,000 bid security and Rs. 5,000 document fee. Competition appears moderate; single-envelope procedure indicates straightforward material supply rather than complex services. Timeline is tight (16 days from publication to 31 October close), requiring immediate preparation of GST/tax compliance documentation. No pre-bid meeting mentioned suggests standard commodity or material specification.
Who can bid: Bidders must hold current GST and Income Tax registrations with professional tax certificates attached to bids. Firms must not be blacklisted by any government department (affidavit required). Typically, suppliers of event materials in Pakistan are required to have NTN from FBR and sales tax registration; foreign firms may require additional import/export authorisation depending on material origin.
