City Traffic Police Faisalabad has issued a tender notice inviting sealed bids and e-bids for the financial year 2026-2027 covering procurement of POL (lubricants), electronic communication equipment, office stationery, cost of other store items, computer stationery, sports items, tent and tarpal, computer hardware, stationery printing, miscellaneous IT equipment, repair of transport, plant and machinery, furniture and fixtures, other building works, road safety equipment, hot and cold storage, beds and boxes, software and other miscellaneous items. This tender pertains to Faisalabad city, Punjab, and carries an estimated cost of PKR 74.063 million. Procurement will be carried out through the Punjab e-Procurement System (EPADS) using the open competitive single stage two envelope bidding procedure in accordance with the Punjab Procurement Rules 2014 and the Punjab Electronic Procurement Regulations 2022.

Only bidders registered on EPADS are eligible to participate, wherever such registration is mandatory. Interested firms must be eligible and financially sound, with previous experience in the relevant category, and registered with FBR and PRA wherever applicable. The successful bidder must furnish bid security equal to 2% of the quoted bid price for each lot. Bidders are required to submit Income Tax Returns, Past Performance and Work Experience details, Bank Statement, NTN Certificate, Non-Blacklisting Affidavit, Sales Tax Registration Certificate, CNIC of Proprietor or Authorized Representative, and PRA Registration along with their bids. All quoted rates must be inclusive of applicable taxes including GST and PST and valid till 30.06.2027.

Bid documents and detailed advertisement can be downloaded from the PPRA and EPADS websites. Bids must be delivered to the office of the undersigned by 10:00 AM on 19.08.2026, and any bid received after this deadline will be rejected. Bids will be opened on the same date at 11:00 AM in the presence of participating bidders' representatives at the office of the Chief Traffic Officer, Faisalabad. In case of technical issues with online submission, hard copies of sealed financial bids may be submitted before the deadline as per PPRA Rules 2014.

This is a wide-scope annual rate contract covering diverse categories from fuel to IT equipment, meaning multiple vendors could win different lots rather than one supplier taking everything. SMEs should focus on specific lots matching their core business (e.g., stationery or IT) rather than bidding across all categories. The 2% bid security per lot and EPADS registration requirement add procedural overhead that smaller unregistered firms may find restrictive. Since this is an annual recurring contract, establishing a relationship now could yield repeat business in future fiscal years.

Who can bid: Bidders must be registered on EPADS, hold valid FBR and PRA registration where applicable, and demonstrate past performance/experience in the relevant supply category. Typically, firms are also expected to have NTN, Sales Tax Registration, and a clean non-blacklisting record to qualify for government supply tenders of this nature.
