Ministry of Transport is adding suppliers to a three-year toner cartridge framework covering about 20 HP, Brother and Xerox cartridge types. US$500 bid security. Bids close 15 October 2026 at 11:00 CAT.
An additional-supplier round on the Ministry of Transport's toner cartridge framework, running over a three-year term.
The cartridge codes listed run to about twenty types, mostly HP — 151A, 59A, 201A, 30A, 26A, 410A, 415A and 415A in colour, 14A, 05A, 89A, 32A, 80A, 210A, 72A in six colours, 56 drum — plus Xerox NL and Xerox VersaLink lines.
Every line carries a quantity of 1 and ten further lines carry a quantity of zero, which confirms this is a rate schedule rather than an order: you are pricing each cartridge type and the ministry calls off against it.
The catalogue mapping is badly wrong throughout — HP codes are filed against Brother part numbers — so price against the descriptions, and expect to resolve several of them against the document.
A bid security of 500 applies, bid validity is 90 days and the term is three years. Run as a competitive bidding method. The full tender document was not available to us.
Moderate effort to bid.
