For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
PAFDA seeks installation of a stainless-steel HVAC ducting system at its Lahore headquarters—a specialized mechanical contract likely of medium scale based on scope.
The 120-day bid validity and two-envelope procedure signal formal procurement governance. Bidders must be comfortable with government procurement timelines and compliance documentation. The 2% bid security requirement is standard. This appears to be a one-off facility upgrade rather than framework or rate-contract work, requiring full installation capability and quality assurance.
Who can bid: The notice does not explicitly state PEC registration or SECP/NTN requirements. Typically, suppliers and contractors in Pakistan must hold active NTN registration, relevant PEC category (e.g., C-3 for mechanical/HVAC), and must not be blacklisted by PPRA or government entities. No geographic restrictions are mentioned.
