Details

The IPA is seeking to engage a Supplier to develop and/or provide an existing solution to provide a searchable, open access digital repository that hosts copies of all research conducted by IPA faculty and post graduate level students, making it accessible via the Library services. This will support evidence-based policy and practice across the public sector and enhance the visibility, accessibility, and impact of IPA research. The repository will serve as a structured, permanent, and searchable archive for IPA affiliated research. It will be integrated into the IPA Library online services and openly accessible to public servants, policymakers, researchers, students, and the wider public. The open access model ensures that the knowledge generated at the IPA can be used without cost or restriction, supporting greater reach and societal benefit.

Documents

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this it & telecom opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
