For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
Federal government is seeking a CA firm for statutory audit of Daanish University Trust's FY2026 financials.
This is a one-off annual audit engagement for a federally-constituted charitable trust operating multiple academic institutions. Scale appears medium—likely complex consolidated statements but single-year scope. Tight deadline (19 days to submission) with pre-bid meeting compressed into final week; Quality-Cost selection favors experienced firms with competitive pricing. Expect rigorous scope given federal/charitable trust status and ICAP registration requirement.
Who can bid: Only firms of Chartered Accountants registered with ICAP (Institute of Chartered Accountants of Pakistan) are eligible. NTN and SECP registration are typically required for all bidders. Specific technical qualifications and experience thresholds are stated in the Proposal Data Sheet (Section III) and Terms of Reference (Section VI), which must be reviewed for audit-specific criteria.
