For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
A fire alarm system installation contract at three major airports (Lahore, Sialkot, Faisalabad) represents medium-scale specialist work requiring PEC C-6 certification.
The single-stage two-envelope procedure suggests complexity and likely competitive bidding. SAP Ariba-only submission may exclude vendors unfamiliar with e-procurement platforms. September 2026 closing indicates time to mobilize resources and secure PEC clearance. This appears a one-off capital works project rather than recurring maintenance.
Who can bid: Bidders must hold valid PEC Category C-6 or above certificate in relevant specialization. SAP Ariba registration is mandatory; vendors without existing Network IDs must register at https://tenderpso.com.pk:8022/. Typically, NTN registration and corporate standing are also required. Past experience in aviation or critical infrastructure fire safety systems is expected.
