This is a small-scale structural rehabilitation project valued at approximately Rs.
2.85 million for an abandoned facility conversion in Lahore. The tight deadline (submission by 12 September 2026) and single-stage two-envelope procedure suggest a straightforward construction scope with no pre-bid meeting. The work appears to be a one-off renovation rather than a recurring contract. Bidders must be formally registered on the Punjab e-procurement platform with active tax registration, which is a standard requirement now enforced consistently by PPRA. The project size and nature (addition/alteration) suggests suitability for medium-sized local contractors with experience in structural work and building services.
Who can bid: Bidders must be registered on the Punjab e-procurement system with active NTN and PNTN filer status. While the notice does not specify a particular PEC category, contractors bidding for structural addition and alteration work typically require PEC registration in the relevant civil/building category. Firms must have active tax compliance and be registered with SECP or as a sole proprietor with FBR. Foreign contractors may participate if registered locally.
