Subject: Seeking opinion for obtaining BEPZA Supplier License.
Dear Sir,
Myself Yuichi Akagi, Country Manager of Sanyo Engineering & Construction Inc. (Branch office, BIDA Permission Ref No: OPE-23Feb2023-00002) with due respect I would like to inform you that, Sanyo Engineering & Construction Inc. applied for the enlistment in BEPZA area under your jurisdiction for the construction work supplier license on 03 February 2021 and 7th February 2022 against mentioned in the group-cha of circular no:- 03.06.2616.315.62.000.20/64 of 14th January 2021 and group-cha of circular no:- 03.06.2616.319.62.000.22/42 of 12th January 2022.
Unfortunately, our application was not accepted and the application for the license has been voided by a notice issued by BEPZA on 11th August 2022, Ref. No.: 03.06.2616.319.062.000.22/798. For the application, we had informal meetings at the BEPZA office several times and informed the necessity of supplier licenses for Multinational Companies situated in BEPZA (especially for Japanese companies) for running manufacturing operations. After all, we got rejected by the letter.
However please be informed that as per the enlistment & license renewal advertisement published on 14th January 2021 with the reference number 03.06.2616.315.62.000.20/64, in clause group (Cha) mentioned that, any company that conducts all kinds of construction works (Civil, Electrical& Mechanical) can apply for supplier license under BEPZA.
I would like to inform you that Sanyo Engineering & Construction Inc. is working under the contract namely, Mechanical & Electrical Works and Diagnosis to plant facilities with the below companies namely, YKK Bangladesh Pte. Ltd and TOWA Personal Protective Device Bangladesh Ltd.
(1) Contract name: M & E Works for Die Cast Production Line
Company name: YKK Bangladesh Pte Ltd
(2) Contract name: Survey to Power infrastructure system for plant
Company name: TOWA Personal Protective Device Bangladesh Ltd.
It is mentionable that Sanyo Engineering & Construction Inc. has expertise in (Mechanical & Electrical Works) M&E works which cannot be delivered by other companies efficiently and effectively. Some BEPZA companies want Sanyo Engineering & Construction Inc. to work with them to maintain the quality of work and get expert support.
For the above reason, it is very essential to have a supplier license from BEPZA.
Therefore, it is requested to review the application as well as consider the above circumstance, kindly provide your valuable opinion for issuing a supplier license in favor of Sanyo Engineering & Construction Inc.
Sincerely yours,
_______________
