For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
JSMU seeks an annual AC maintenance contractor for multiple campuses—a recurring service contract with unit-rate pricing locked for 12 months.
Scale appears medium-to-large given multi-campus scope and minimum PKR 3m prior contract requirement. Critical: bidders must physically visit JSMU to confirm scope before bid submission, suggesting complex or variable asset inventory. Non-joint-venture, Karachi-based firms only. Quoted rates bind future additions/deletions, so pricing risk is material.
Who can bid: Bidders must be Karachi-based or have branch; FBR/SRB tax registration (3 years' returns); minimum 3 years' AC/HVAC experience with work orders; 3+ prior contracts ≥PKR 3m in similar services; currently hold ≥1 active contract ≥PKR 3m in AC/HVAC; average annual turnover ≥PKR 15m (audited, 3-year average). No joint ventures. Non-blacklisting undertaking on Rs 200 stamp paper mandatory.
