Electronic portal for bidding on PHARMAC’s annual tender
E-portal for PHARMAC’s annual tender now available to trial.
Before the e-portal goes ‘live’, PHARMAC is providing suppliers with the opportunity to trial and practice with the e-portal and register their company in the system if they have not already done so before the release of the 2018/19 Tender. The practice tender will remain open until midnight on Sunday 21 October 2018.
During the trial period suppliers will be able to view, enter and submit bids on a practice tender to learn how the system works. The bids that you submit during this trial period will not be considered as actual bids.
PHARMAC strongly encourages suppliers who are not familiar with the e-portal to register, trial the portal and become familiar with the changes to bidding so that you are ready to respond to the 2018/19 Tender.
