    Brief

    CPI seeks approved suppliers to provide a comprehensive range of lipids for research, development, pilot-scale, and GMP manufacturing activities across the Formulation Centre, Biologics Centre, and RNA Centre of Excellence.

Suppliers should be capable of delivering lipids in research, pilot, or GMP grades in multiple formats including powders, solutions, and ready-to-use concentrates. Beyond product supply, this framework requires technical support, Certificates of Analysis (CoAs), comprehensive GMP documentation packages, and temperature-controlled logistics to ensure product quality and regulatory compliance throughout the supply chain.
