Dear Sri Subhas Khode,
Thanks for your post.
What I sensed from your post is that you want to get a RELIABLE vendor so that you can ENSURE that your payment (MADE IN ADVANCE) does not go astray.
This is absolutely necessary and extremely important for any library as well as for the Librarian because in case any problem arises, the Librarian will be the victim.
I have gone through the posts suggesting certain vendors and as I understand, all of them especially Allied, Informatics & Globe are all recognized and eminent vendors. However, you can do a few things additionally. It will be a safe-guard for you.
Ask the vendor in writing to provide lists of organizations for at least last 3 years continually. Them write letters to three four organizations and enquiring about the Vendor's credentials. Get their reply and keep those letters in file. When you will select a vendor finally, write a note to your authority and refer those letters and enclose copies of them and at the same time keep a copy of those letters in your personal custody. If anything untoward happens, those letters and your note to the authority will be your safe-guard. So if you follow the steps meticulously, your skin will be saved.
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray
