Discover procure.bn

procure.bn is a platform aimed at ensuring due diligence, promoting transparency, offering equal opportunities, and streamlining procurement processes. Supplier registration will commence in November 2024, while procurement activities are tentatively scheduled to begin from March 2025. This timeline allows ample time for suppliers to complete necessary details and undergo registration checks.

The registration process usually takes 4 to 6 business days upon submission of complete and accurate documents. If any documents do not match the requirements, the process may take longer as they will need to be resubmitted. The onboarding process follows a first-come, first-served basis, and due to the volume of applications, it may require additional time. Therefore, the registration period starting in November 2024 allows ample time before procurement goes live tentatively in March 2025.

The evaluation is based on the accuracy of the data, the validity and authenticity of mandatory documents, and whether your licenses, certificates, and permits are up to date.

Please refer to the email sent after creating your account for specific documentation requirements. The required documentation varies depending on the supplier classification.

If you need to correct your commercial license number or company name, please notify [email protected] so your application can be rejected, allowing you to create a new one, as these details cannot be changed. For any other modifications, you may request the support team to return the application to you, making it editable again.

The required information and documents depend on your supplier classification. For local companies (Sdn Bhd or Bhd), you will need to submit a Certificate of Incorporation, Form X, confirmation of annual returns filing, income tax return receipt, and a certificate of tax compliance. Additionally, all companies must provide any licenses and certificates related to their business activities. Submitting comprehensive supporting documents enhances the authenticity of your profile.

Confirmation emails are automatically triggered. If you haven’t received one, please check your junk folder or consult your company’s IT team.

Please save your progress to avoid losing your work. We recommend recording the error message or taking a screenshot.
