This initiative comes in response to the repeated and extensive
demands from manufacturing and supplying companies within the Ministry of
Petroleum.
The Deputy of Engineering of the Ministry of Petroleum highlighted
that all domestic manufacturers and suppliers are eligible to register on the
Fava Naft Saba Kish website. To begin the registration process, interested
parties must obtain a 5-digit membership code (Irancode) from the website
www.irancode.ir and provide the required tokens and electronic certificates.
Subsequently, they can access the Ministry of Petroleum's electronic supply
system portal at ep.mop.ir, enter the necessary information, and complete the
self-declaration questionnaire form.
The Ministry of Petroleum's Research and Technology division, in line
with its commitment to supporting domestic manufacturers and creating an
extensive information repository, has compiled a long list of qualified entities
based on their capabilities and performance. By adhering to the established
tender regulations, the central body of the Ministry of Petroleum has now
published the fifth call for the evaluation of bidders' qualifications.
To assist in the process, an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) phone
line with the number +9821-61627880 has been made available to address any
system-related issues. Once the final registration and completed forms are
issued, any subsequent updates will require permission from the central
authority at the aforementioned address. It is crucial for companies to ensure
thorough completion of the relevant forms, as they serve as the criteria for
qualification and rating evaluation.
To expedite the self-declaration process, all domestic manufacturers
and suppliers are encouraged to consult the "Supplier Guide" section
on the ep.mop.ir website. Essential documents, permits, certificates, and
evaluation criteria for resource qualification, along with their respective
weightage, can be found in the tender information base and the central
organization's website.
It is important to note that only resources that have completed at
least one registered and issued questionnaire with the relevant product will be
eligible for evaluation. Resources that have yet to complete the
self-declaration process will not be considered for assessment.
As per Article 3, Clause C of the Executive Regulations of Article 26,
Clause A of the Tendering Law, the validity period for evaluating the
competence of manufacturer and supplier resources will be two years from the
date of inclusion in the central body's long list.
The central office for document submissions is located at 4th Floor,
General Department of Technology Supply and Commercialization System, 6th
Central Building of Iran National Oil Company, No. 523, Hafez St., Karimkhan
Zand St., Tehran, postal code 1598714513.
The specialized fields for qualification assessment encompass all
areas relevant to the upstream and downstream industries of oil, gas, refining,
distribution, and petrochemicals, both onshore and offshore. The deadline for
receiving and delivering qualification evaluation documents will span from May
10th 2023 to March 18th 2024.
The central body, under the supervision of the Deputy of Engineering,
Research, and Technology Affairs of the Ministry of Petroleum, will evaluate
resources based on the latest edition of the instructions for assessing the
competence and rating of manufacturers and suppliers (the central body's long
list).
The results of the self-declaration qualification evaluation and
document completion will be published on the national tender information
database and the website of the central body of the Ministry of Petroleum no
later than December.
This latest call for evaluating tenderers' qualifications
by the Ministry of Petroleum reflects the ministry's ongoing commitment to
supporting domestic manufacturers and streamlining the procurement process.
With the objective of maximizing the utilization of local capabilities and
resources, the ministry aims to enhance efficiency and competitiveness in the
supply of essential items and equipment.
