Damascus Children’s Hospital Announces Tender for Surgical Supplies
The General Authority for Supply and Procurement has officially announced a call for tenders regarding the provision of essential medical consumables for the surgical care unit at the Children’s Hospital in Damascus. This initiative, organized on behalf of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research, is part of ongoing efforts to ensure the continued availability of critical materials required for pediatric surgical operations in the capital.
The tender, officially identified as number 080-E-2026, was published on August 17, 2026. Interested parties are invited to submit their bids in accordance with the technical and financial specifications outlined in the project’s official documentation.
To ensure a transparent and orderly procurement process, the authorities have mandated a specific submission format. Bidders must provide their proposals in three separate sealed envelopes—containing legal documentation, technical details, and financial offers—which are then to be enclosed within a single, signed, and stamped outer envelope. Failure to include the preliminary bond receipt in the first envelope will result in the immediate disqualification of the bid.
Successful participants will be required to provide a performance bond equivalent to 10% of the contract value. The project has an estimated execution timeframe of six months from the date of the issuance of the notice to proceed. Late delivery of the required materials will incur a financial penalty of 0.001 per day of the total contract value, capped at a maximum of 20% of the total, to ensure adherence to the project timeline. Participants must maintain the validity of their submitted offers for a period of 90 calendar days following the close of the submission window.
The deadline for submitting formal bids is set for the close of the official working day on Sunday, September 6, 2026. Bids must be delivered in person to the offices of the General Authority for Supply and Procurement, located in the former Free Zones building opposite the General Authority for Customs in Damascus.
Interested suppliers can obtain the full project documentation from the Authority’s office. The file is priced at 50 USD, with electronic payment options available via the Sham Cash digital platform. This tender represents a significant administrative step in maintaining the operational capacity of one of Syria’s primary pediatric healthcare facilities, ensuring that the surgical unit remains equipped to meet the needs of its patients. Further information and support regarding the submission process are available through the contacts provided by the General Authority for Supply and Procurement.
