FMCG PRODUCTS - Department of Tourism

The eligibility requirements include being a registered entity in the relevant business sector, compliant with industry standards for supplying FMCG products. Bidders must hold valid certifications for quality assurance, confirm their capacity for timely delivery, and provide documentation proving their financial stability and operational capabilities.

Bidders must outline clear technical specifications for each product offered within their bid. This includes energy ratings, dimensions, functions, and warranty assurances. Compliance with industry standards and local regulations is also a requirement to ensure quality and reliability of the appliances provided.

Bidders are required to submit an Earnest Money Deposit (EMD) that acts as a security against withdrawal from the bidding process. The EMD serves to demonstrate the bidder’s commitment and is typically forfeited in cases of failure to comply with the terms and conditions post-award. Specific amounts can be found in the tender documentation.

Submissions must be made electronically through the designated tender portal. Bidders are advised to format their documents according to the specifications laid out in the tender guidelines to facilitate a seamless evaluation and selection process. It is important to adhere to all stipulated submission methods and timing.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSEs) are encouraged to participate through special provisions that may include more favorable pricing, extended payment terms, and support in accessing resources that enhance their competitive stance in the tendering process. This initiative aligns with the broader objectives to stimulate local entrepreneurship and innovation initiatives within the sector.
