Repair and Maintenance of Public Buildings by Punjab Works Department

The Punjab Works Department invites sealed bids for repair and maintenance of various public buildings across Punjab province. This procurement encompasses multiple buildings requiring structural repairs, painting, plumbing works, electrical installations, and general maintenance services to ensure safe and functional government infrastructure. The contract scope includes buildings under PWD jurisdiction, with detailed site inspections and condition assessments required prior to bid submission. Bidders must be registered with the relevant engineering and construction regulatory bodies and possess valid licenses for civil and allied trades. Bid security is required as a percentage of the estimated project value, which shall be deposited with the tender submission. All bids must be submitted in sealed envelopes addressed to the PWD office at the specified location before the closing date of 10 August 2026. The tender documents are available for collection from the PWD office during business hours, with a nominal cost for document procurement. Pre-bid meeting will be held at the designated PWD office to clarify specifications and site conditions. Bids will be publicly opened on the announced date, and award will be made to the lowest responsive bidder meeting all technical and financial criteria.

The Punjab Works Department is seeking contractors for repair and maintenance services across multiple public buildings in the province. The procurement appears to be a recurring annual or multi-phase maintenance contract rather than a single project, suggesting ongoing work opportunities for qualified firms. Key challenge is the broad geographic scope across Punjab and diverse repair categories (structural, electrical, plumbing, painting), requiring multi-disciplinary capacity. The August 2026 deadline allows reasonable preparation time for document collection and site surveys. Contractors must hold active engineering licenses and registrations; SMEs lacking professional PEC or SECP registration will face ineligibility barriers.

Who can bid: Bidders must typically be registered with the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) for civil engineering or relevant trade categories, hold valid contractor licenses issued by provincial authorities, and maintain active membership with relevant professional bodies. Business registration with SECP or NTN registration is typically required. Any restrictions on foreign bidders or joint ventures should be confirmed in the full tender document.
