For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
Government seeks design, development, and implementation of an integrated record preservation and public access management system for Sahiwal Division HQ—a modernization play rather than traditional construction.
At Rs. 121.6 crore, this is a large-scale digitization/infrastructure hybrid with 24-month execution. Notable: tight closure (Sept 2026, appears imminent), PEC registration mandatory, and substantial earnest money requirement suggests Government is serious about contractor solvency. One-off project for a specific govt facility.
Who can bid: Must be PEC-registered and renewed for current FY in relevant construction category. Typically, bidders require valid NTN, SECP registration (if applicable), and proof of financial capacity commensurate with contract value. No other explicit restrictions stated; standard Government of Punjab compliance expected.
