IBA seeks 64 custom dark-blue waterproof parachutes jackets with YKK zippers, velvet collars, and logo branding.
This is a straightforward uniform supply contract with tight execution risk: 15-day delivery post-PO and sample approval required upfront. Scale is modest (single item, ~64 units), but customization and branding demands mean delays risk 2% monthly penalties. Non-recurring procurement suggests one-time institutional need rather than framework opportunity.
Who can bid: Vendors typically require NTN and valid business registration for institutional procurement in Pakistan. No explicit PEC category applies (non-construction). Sample approval at IBA Admin Office is mandatory pre-production. IBA explicitly reserves rejection rights and may source from multiple bidders; no specific bonding or guarantee threshold stated for quotation stage.
