Diesel Locomotive Parts and Services by Pakistan Railways Central Workshop

Pakistan Railways Central Diesel Locomotive Workshop Rawalpindi invites technical and financial proposals under a single stage two envelope procurement procedure for supply of goods and services as per tender form 494-W/201/12-LTE/RSD. The workshop, a key maintenance facility in Punjab, requires qualified suppliers to meet specified technical requirements and Railway specifications for diesel locomotive components and related services. The procurement follows the Public Procurement Rules 2004 with transparent technical and financial evaluation stages.

All bidders must submit earnest money equivalent to 2 percent of tender worth along with their proposals. Firms registered with the Cabinet Committee on Procurement (CCP) office may provide valid standing security in lieu of earnest money. Bidders must confirm their ability to supply brand new goods strictly according to Pakistan Railways specifications and requirements. The tender validity period is sixty days from the tender opening date, and bidders must not quote delivery periods exceeding forty five days from date of issuance of purchase orders. Sales tax registration, national tax number, and CCP registration details are mandatory submission requirements.

Technical proposals will be evaluated first without reference to pricing according to specified evaluation criteria. Only technically accepted bids will have their financial proposals opened publicly at a announced date and venue communicated to bidders in advance. The Works Manager/Diesel at the Central Diesel Locomotive Workshop holds authority to reject all bids or proposals at any time prior to formal acceptance. Interested suppliers should prepare sealed single packages containing two separate envelopes clearly marked as Technical Proposal and Financial Proposal, ensuring compliance with all tender terms and conditions specified in this notice.

Pakistan Railways seeks suppliers via single-stage two-envelope tender for diesel locomotive workshop needs. No specific commodity list is provided in this form—it appears to be a standing/framework tender. Bidders must deposit 2% earnest money and provide CCP/tax registrations. The 45-day delivery window is tight. This is likely a recurring requirement given the maintenance nature of the workshop; repeat suppliers with Railway-approved specifications may have advantage.

Who can bid: Suppliers must be registered with Pakistan's tax authority (NTN) and possess Sales Tax Registration. CCP registration is required or preferred. Bidders typically need valid business registration under SECP or partnership deed, and demonstrated capacity to supply brand new goods meeting Railway technical specifications. No sector-specific license mentioned, but compliance with Pakistan Railways Standard Conditions of Contract is mandatory.
