Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
Military Engineer Services seeks a maintenance contractor for B&R works at a PAF facility in Gilgit-Baltistan under a one-year lump sum contract valued at approximately Rs.
1.99 million. The tender restricts eligibility to MES Category E contractors or equivalent from other government departments, creating a relatively closed competitive field. Applicants from non-MES departments must provide extensive documentation of prior work and asset ownership. The fixed-price lump sum structure means cost overruns fall entirely on the contractor, requiring careful estimating. Work is maintenance-focused rather than new construction, suggesting ongoing operational support for military infrastructure.
Who can bid: Bidders must be enlisted with MES in category E (Rs. 75,000+) or registered with PWD, KDA, CDA, PWR, or WAPDA with limits of Rs. 4,000,000+. Non-MES contractors must submit enlisment proof, work history, asset lists certified by banks and revenue authorities, and equipment inventories. Bidders typically require valid NTN, active business registration, and demonstrated project execution capacity in the maintenance sector.
