The Headquarters Airport Security (Airports Security Force (ASF)) invites pre-qualification applications from national suppliers for the supply of office stationery during the financial year 2026-27.

Interested applicants must possess the necessary business registration and be capable of supplying the required stationery items in accordance with ASF specifications.

For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
ASF seeks to establish a pre-qualified panel of stationery suppliers for FY 2026-27 in Karachi.
This is a framework arrangement where successful pre-qualification leads to subsequent on-demand bidding rather than direct award—typical of government's tiered procurement. Scale appears medium based on ongoing operational requirements across multiple ASF facilities. The tight August 2026 deadline and e-EPADS-only submission method suggest ASF has moved to fully digital tendering; delay risk is real for those unfamiliar with the platform.
Who can bid: Open to national suppliers with business registration (SECP/FBR registration typically required). Must demonstrate financial capacity and operational capability to supply per ASF specifications. No specific PEC category mentioned as this is supplies, not construction. Tender specifies eligibility criteria exist in pre-qualification documents on EPADS—details not publicly summarized here.
