KW&SC seeks 1000 MT sodium hypochlorite annually for Karachi's water chlorination network—a utility supply contract spanning July 2026–June 2027.
Estimated value PKR 83.7M signals medium-scale recurring procurement. Notable: three-year track record mandatory with at least one prior similar contract at 80% of tender value; turnover verification across five years required. This is a vetted supplier relationship, not a one-off spot purchase, suggesting stability for qualified chemical suppliers.

Mandatory: three years' prior experience (July 2022–June 2025) with similar works; audit reports and ITRs for last three years; average annual turnover ≥ PKR 83.7M over preceding five years. Non-blacklisting affidavit and Integrity Pact on stamped paper required. Typically, chemical suppliers must also hold relevant industrial licenses and safety certifications.
