IBA is procuring a complete 117.12 kWp solar carport system—a substantial grid-tied PV installation with design, supply, installation and commissioning scope. The August 2026 deadline is approximately three weeks away, suggesting a compressed pre-tender phase but feasible execution window for experienced solar contractors. This is a one-off institutional project with turnkey responsibility; bidders will shoulder full design and performance risk. The carport configuration suggests dual-use (vehicle shelter plus power generation), requiring structural and electrical integration expertise.
Who can bid: Bidders must hold valid NTN and SRB/GST registration. The notice does not specify PEC category; however, bidders for electrical/solar installation work typically require SECP registration or equivalent. Experience in similar-scale grid-tied PV projects is expected based on post-qualification evaluation criteria.
