Prequalification of Suppliers and Service Providers for DGSE Goods and Services FY2026-27

The Directorate General of Special Education, Ministry of Federal Education & Professional Training, Islamabad, invites prequalification applications from well-reputed and experienced firms, suppliers, contractors and service providers for the supply of goods and provision of services to DGSE Head Office and its institutions during the financial year 2026-27. Nine lots are open for prequalification covering construction and renovation works, IT equipment supply and maintenance, machinery and electrical equipment, food supply, furniture and fixtures, stationery and miscellaneous items, transport vehicle maintenance, event management services, and development of a Special Education Management Information System. Applicants must have an established office in Islamabad or Rawalpindi and be duly registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan or the Registrar of Firms.

Interested firms may apply for one or more lots by submitting a separate bid security of Rs. 500,000 for each lot in the form of a Bank Draft, Pay Order or Call Deposit Receipt drawn in favour of the Directorate General of Special Education. Applicants must be registered with relevant Income Tax and Sales Tax authorities. The bid security must be submitted in original hard copy format to reach the office on or before the closing date and time.

Applications must be submitted in original hard copy format on or before Wednesday 19 August 2026 at 2:00 p.m. at the DGSE office in Islamabad. Prequalification applications will be opened on the same day at 2:30 p.m. in the presence of applicants or their authorized representatives. The complete prequalification document containing detailed requirements, evaluation criteria and scope of work is available on the Ministry of Federal Education & Professional Training website and the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority website. Applications submitted by email, fax, courier or any other electronic means shall not be entertained.

This is a multi-lot prequalification exercise covering nine distinct service and supply categories for a federal special education authority. The closing date is August 2026, providing reasonable preparation time. Firms may pursue single or multiple lots depending on their capabilities. The bid security requirement of Rs. 500,000 per lot suggests moderate-scale contracts. Successful prequalification opens opportunities for supplying goods and services to a government educational institution across a full financial year, potentially representing recurring or framework-type engagements rather than one-off projects.

Who can bid: Applicants must be well-reputed and established firms with offices in Islamabad or Rawalpindi, registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan or Registrar of Firms, and registered with Income Tax and Sales Tax authorities. No specific PEC category is mentioned for construction, but builders and contractors typically require PEC registration. Firms applying for multiple lots must provide separate bid securities.
