GOVERNMENT + GOCC · VIA CHANNEL PARTNER
Government and GOCC procurement, through a certified channel partner.
For Philippine government and GOCC engagements above ₱10M, Orkids works through a certified channel partner. Public procurement requires PhilGEPS standing, a completed-contract record, and accreditations that a partner already holds — and that we pursue only when a real engagement is on the table.
Public procurement under the GPPB framework is exacting and rightly so. PhilGEPS Platinum membership, a BIR Tax Clearance for Bidding Purposes, an Audited Financial Statement at the required band, and where relevant a DICT DTAP accreditation are gates a certified partner already clears.
We pursue those accreditations when a specific government engagement justifies the cost and the timeline — not speculatively. Until then, the honest path for a public-sector requirement is an introduction to a partner who is already eligible to bid.
Why this routes through a partner.
PhilGEPS standing and bidding eligibility
Public bidding requires PhilGEPS Platinum membership, a Tax Clearance for Bidding Purposes, and a current Audited Financial Statement — standing a certified partner maintains continuously and we pursue only against a real engagement.
Completed-contract and accreditation thresholds
Government procurement screens on a Single Largest Completed Contract and, for cybersecurity work, a DICT DTAP accreditation. A partner already holds the record and the credentials these tenders require.
A scale better matched by a partner today
The core systems at this tier run at a volume and redundancy profile better served right now by a partner with the team depth and the operations history to stand behind them. Our work is custom AI for the Philippine mid-market. We say so plainly.
If a government or GOCC engagement is genuinely on the table, tell us the scope. We will pursue the accreditations where the engagement justifies it, or introduce you to a certified partner who is already eligible to bid. Either way, we will be direct about which path fits.
