The Executive Engineer Drainage Division LBOD, Shaheed Benazir Abad invites electronic bids through SPPRA E-PADS for rate contract procurement of goods, services and works for the financial year 2026-2027. The scope includes operation and maintenance, repairs and upkeep of tubewells, pumping stations, colony drainage networks, government vehicles and abklani materials, including rain and flood fighting services as required throughout the jurisdiction of the drainage division in Shaheed Benazir Abad. The tender value is estimated at 6.00 million rupees with a tender fee of Rs. 3,000 (non-refundable) and bid security of 6.00 million rupees.

Eligible bidders must hold valid PEC registration in relevant category/specialization for bids exceeding 4.00 million rupees, active taxpayer status with FBR and SRB registration, and an average annual turnover of at least Rs. 50.00 million during the last three years. Bidders must provide audited financial statements and income tax returns for the preceding three years from ICAP registered audit firms, bank statements and certificates evidencing an average annual closing bank balance of Rs. 5.00 million, documentary evidence of similar works experience, machinery and equipment lists, and an affidavit on e-stamp confirming non-blacklisting and non-involvement in litigation with government departments.

The procurement follows a single stage two envelope procedure through SPPRA E-PADS. Bid documents can be accessed from the SPPRA portal at http://portalsindh.eprocure.gov.pk or from the office of the undersigned. Bids must be submitted electronically by 06-08-2026 at 11:00 AM with original tender fee and bid security submitted in sealed envelope by hand or registered mail to the office near Bilawal Stadium Road, Nawabshah. Technical proposals will be opened on the same date at 12:00 Noon with financial proposals of responsive bidders opened on a date to be communicated by the procuring agency. The bid validity period is 90 days.

This is a 6 million rupee rate contract for O&M and emergency services across a drainage division's infrastructure portfolio for one financial year. The PEC registration requirement and substantial turnover threshold (Rs. 50 million) indicate this is suited to established contractors with diversified capabilities spanning mechanical (tubewells/pumps), civil (drainage networks) and vehicle maintenance. The August 2026 closing date and recurring nature (annual framework) suggest this is a planned annual procurement; contractors with prior drainage or irrigation sector experience stand advantage. The scope's breadth and emergency provisions (flood fighting) require mobilisation capability and flexible resource management.

Who can bid: Bidders must hold valid PEC registration in relevant category (required for bids over 4 million rupees), active taxpayer registration (FBR/SRB ATL status), and demonstrate Rs. 50 million average annual turnover over three years. Supporting financial documentation from ICAP audit firms, three years' bank statements with Rs. 5 million average closing balance, and evidence of similar works experience during the same period are mandatory. Non-blacklisting affidavit required.
