NNPC vendor registration guide

NNPC vendor registration guide will help you to operate in oil and gas industry area without delay and extra effort. Adhere to the listed instructions.

In order to meet all modern requirements and enhance oil and gas industry efficiency, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) has changed the approach to the organization of business activities in complying with international standards.

For this purpose, NNPC bought System Applications and Products Enterprise Resource Planning (SAP-ERP) Solution for business activities administration. It includes supplier management, contracts and purchases, billing, payments of contractors and so on. At the same time, NNPC has stopped to register contractors and vendors manually. According to the information posted on the official websites: http://www.nnpcgroup.com and http://www.nipex-ng.com, if any Nigerian company wants to deal with NNPC, it has to register on the official website of Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation. The link address is http://register.nipexjqs.com/form_nnpcsupplierregistration01/.

NNPC has a vendor management database. It includes all contractors working with NNPC. They are distributed on particular working categories. Besides, NNPC indicates the appropriate legislative and regulatory demands for work in the Nigerian oil and gas industries.

This step is directed to gain transparency in the process of purchases and contracts conclusion and improve the suppliers’ quality of work. Besides, one more aim is to increase overview of contractual opportunities for indigenous contractors/vendors with such concomitant privileges for the contracting congregation:

1. Registration fee is canceled (contracts with cost twenty-five million Naira and less)
2. Multifold registration in NNPC business directions is canceled (one online registration)
3. Portfolio contractors are not recommended (contractors are divided into particular work categories and so on)

NNPC has made a new contractor management strategy as one of its converting initiatives. According to the new rules, the cost of contracts was combined into two various financial thresholds:

• Cost of the contract up to 25 million Naira
• Cost of the contract above 25 million Naira

Contractors and vendors who want to do business within the threshold limits of 25 million Naira have to register with NNPC according to requirements in Addition A. At the same time, those who want to make deals over the threshold limits of 25 million Naira have to be preliminary selected and registered on the Nigerian Petroleum Exchange (NipeX) according to demands indicated in Addition B. Such registration will give them the access to NNPC contractors as well as the others in the oil and gas industry of Nigeria.
