Procurement types of OIST</h2> <p> OIST's procurement is regulated to be conducted through selection of business partner by price competition in principle. Multiple quotation comparison will be adopted to the range 1.5 million JPY or more and less than 3.0 million JPY (or, if the Requesting Unit is a research unit or section managed by the Provost, less than 5.0 million JPY). Public tender will be organized in the range 3.0 million JPY or more (or, if the Requesting Unit is a research unit or section managed by the Provost, in the range 5.0 million JPY or more). Above JPY equivalent will be calculated by OIST internal fixed monthly exchange rate (not by realtime TTC/TTS).<br> In the cases like selection by quality examination (not only its price), several proposal methods will be accomplished, and some cases are including negotiation events about contract terms and conditions.</p> <p>Besides, information of OIST's tender announcement and past contract records are available at separated webpage (please refer to below links).</p> <p><a href="https://www.oist.jp/procurement/article" target="_blank">Tender Information</a><br> <a href="https://www.oist.jp/procurement" target="_blank">Procurement Information</a> (including construction items)<br> <a href="https://www.oist.jp/ja/page/13357#menu03" target="_blank">List of Past Contracts</a></p> <p>*For documentation regarding tender, please follow the <a data-entity-substitution="canonical" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="5f9485ba-2537-4375-b324-899201a384ac" href="/about/procurement/documents-related-tender" target="_blank" title="Documents related to tender">required documents when applying tender</a>.</p> <hr class="hr01"> <p> </p> <h2 id="tandc">2. Contract terms and conditions</h2> <p> For transactions valued 3.0 million JPY or more (or, if the Requesting Unit is a research unit or section managed by the Provost, in the range 5.0 million JPY or more), contract agreement will be established by case using OIST's standard contract form(s) shown as below.</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.oist.jp/about/procurement/procurement-related-regulations#standard" target="_blank">Standard contract agreement (for goods sales/purchase)</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.oist.jp/about/procurement/procurement-related-regulations#standard" target="_blank">Standard contract agreement (for services)</a></li> </ul> <p>*Above forms are described along OIST's general transaction terms and conditions, and some adjustment will be proposed according to actual transactions.<br> *Please refer to the webpage for <a href="https://www.oist.jp/about/procurement/procurement-related-regulations" target="_blank">OIST's rules and procedure related to procurement</a>, for more information including detail stipulations about business transaction.</p> <hr class="hr01"> <p> </p> <h2 id="po">3. Placing purchase order from OIST</h2> <p> Order will be placed by the authorized staff in the OIST procurement section in principle.</p> <p> An exception, only transactions valued 1.5 million JPY or less, OIST regulation allows that order form will be provided by research units or administrative sections directly to the business partners. In such cases, please inform persons in charge in each unit/section with order receipt.</p> <p> Order from OIST will be placed essentially by the official "<a href="https://groups.oist.jp/sites/default/files/imce/u368/OIST_PO_Dummy_HEART.pdf" target="_blank">Order Form</a>" (PO) or contract agreement. Please carefully be noted that <strong>OIST can not make payment for transactions without issuing official "Order Form" for both goods sales/purchase and services, since it will not be accepted as OIST's transaction</strong>. Our business partners are requested to prevent issuing order receipt without OIST's official "Order Form", like just via telephone or email.<br> Besides, if you received several PO forms which separated each below 1.5 million JPY from the same person at the same day, it may be concerned as inappropriate split order described in following "<a href="#whistle">7. Contact window for illicit or inappropriate action</a>". Please <strong>do not issue your order receipt</strong>, and ask the person in charge about such compliance.</p> <p> OIST places purchase order based on your quotation (or similar price estimation). It would be appreciated if we could receive it as electronic file like PDF.<br> In OIST, only for transaction values 1.5 million JPY or more, specification with requirement sheet (quotation request form) is essential to be presented from OIST employee to business partner at request for quotation. Specification sheet will be attached to "Purchase Order", therefore, when there was not established specification sheet by OIST in such price range above, please contact requesting person in charge.</p> <p>[Reference] <a data-entity-substitution="canonical" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="6156237f-dfa9-40a3-9815-ef252f4ef71e" href="/research/research-units" target="_blank" title="Research Units">Research Units in OIST</a></p> <p><strong>OIST's nominee for contract agreement/application forms</strong><br> OIST stipulates that nominee of university for PO or contract shall be authorized by the CEO of the school corporation in principle.
