Nutrition
International ”NI” is implementing MITRA Youth, a project supporting Weekly
Iron Folic Acid Supplementation (WIFAS) for prevention and reduction of Iron
Deficiency Anaemia (IDA) among school-going adolescent girls, in selected
districts in two provinces of Indonesia: East Java and East Nusa Tenggara.
MITRA Youth is supported by Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT)
Australia.
Currently, the
Central Government provides 20-25 per cent of total IFA supplements (52 tablets
per year; each tablet containing 60 milligram elemental iron and 400 microgram
folic acid) for each school-going adolescent girl based on the National
Guidelines (2016). There are, however, challenges in this, such that the
districts do not always have sufficient budgets to procure their total
requirement, coupled with delays in receiving additional funds from the Central
or Provincial levels, stock-outs and supply-chain issues in the field.
Therefore, NI will provide the DHOs with the WIFAs to fill the gaps between the
needs and the availability at the districts.
Nutrition
International will follow its procurement procedures including open bidding
through Requests for Quotation (RFQ) from companies, considering that
in-country production of IFA supplements has no international Good
Manufacturing Practice (GMP) fulfilling requirements, Nutrition
International would also do the third
party laboratory test for the IFA supplements supply which will be distributed
to schools.
NI is looking for a
suitable agency for procuring IFA tablets. Please submit bid with link as below:
Deadline
for submission: 23 July 2018, 12:00
West Indonesia Standard Time.
Bid responses and all requisite documentation must be received by NI by post at addresses provided
below:
