Provision of Miscellaneous Equipment by Infrastructure Development Authority Punjab

The Infrastructure Development Authority of Punjab (IDAP), an autonomous body established under the Infrastructure Development Authority of Punjab Act 2016, invites bids for the provision of miscellaneous equipment. This procurement is being conducted through the Punjab e-procurement portal (www.punjab.eprocure.gov.pk) in accordance with modern procurement practices. The tender is referenced as 2026-2027/02/Admin and covers equipment supply required by IDAP for its administrative and operational needs across Punjab province. Interested firms may access the full tender documents and RFP from multiple sources including the Punjab Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) website at http://ppra.punjab.gov.pk, the Punjab e-procurement portal, and the IDAP official website at http://idap.pk to review detailed technical specifications and terms.

Prospective bidders must prepare and submit both technical and financial proposals strictly in accordance with the instructions provided in the RFP document and e-procurement portal guidelines. All bids must be submitted electronically through the designated e-procurement portal on or before August 18, 2026, with a submission deadline of 09:00 HRS. Technical proposals will be opened on the same day at 09:30 HRS PST. If the submission deadline falls on a declared public holiday, the next working day will be observed for both bid submission and opening at the times already specified in this notice.

Bidders should obtain detailed tender documents from the PPRA Punjab website, the e-procurement portal, or directly from IDAP's office located at 50 B3, Gulberg-III, Lahore. For enquiries and clarifications, interested parties may contact the General Manager (Administration) at IDAP via telephone on 042-99332631-42 or visit the website www.idap.pk. All submissions must be made electronically; no physical submissions will be accepted. The procurement authority reserves the right to accept or reject any or all bids and to cancel the procurement process without assigning reasons.

IDAP is procuring miscellaneous equipment through a competitive e-procurement process with a near-term deadline of August 18, 2026. The notice does not specify the equipment types, quantities, or estimated contract value, suggesting this is either a framework agreement for varied supplies or the detailed BOQ is restricted to registered bidders. The e-procurement-only submission method and swift technical opening (same day at 09:30 HRS) indicate a streamlined evaluation. Typically, equipment supply contracts to government entities attract multiple bidders; capacity to deliver within IDAP's operational timelines and compliance with e-procurement portal requirements will be critical differentiators.

Who can bid: The notice does not explicitly state eligibility criteria, bid security amounts, or PEC categories. Typically, suppliers to Pakistani government entities must hold valid NTN registration with the Federal Board of Revenue, be registered with the relevant SECP category or trade body, and maintain current business registration. Bidders should confirm specific eligibility requirements and any required certifications by reviewing the full RFP document on the e-procurement portal before submission.
