Error on In-Tend portal (28 November 2023)
Currently there is a discrepancy between the contract and the portal regarding the price change clauses. The In-Tend portal gives the option to select the price change clauses from the 2021/22 ITT. We are working with the In-tend portal to fix this error. Pharmac asks suppliers to note that Schedules 5 and 6 Clause 3.1 (b)(i) and Clause 3.1 (b)(ii) from the 2021/22 ITT correspond to Schedule 4 clause 2.3 (c)(i) and clause 2.3 (c)(ii) respectively in the 2023/24 ITT.
