University of Rasul seeks supply of medical and pharmacy textbooks and reference materials—likely a moderate-volume academic library replenishment rather than infrastructure.
The emphasis on 'latest edition and year of printing' signals the client will reject older stock; suppliers must verify availability of current prints before bidding. Single-stage, least-cost evaluation favors competitive pricing but demands tight specification compliance. Timeline to November 2026 is generous, reducing urgency risk. This appears one-off institutional stocking, not recurring.
Who can bid: Typically, book suppliers/distributors must hold NTN and Sales Tax registration (active). PEC registration unlikely required unless bidder is a construction firm diversifying. University may impose prequalification criteria (published track record, financial soundness, authorized distributor status for major publishers).
