This tender seeks street light materials for maintenance and repair across 19 Union Councils in Shalamar Zone, valued at Rs.
41.564 million. It is a supply-only contract (not supply and installation), distinct from concurrent street light tenders MCL issued for new complete fittings. The scope appears to cover replacement components, spare parts, and consumables for existing installations. Bidders face a tight submission window (receiving until 10:30 AM with same-day opening) and must meet PEC registration with five years proven experience. The contract is one-off, not recurring, making it a discrete supply opportunity for established suppliers.
Who can bid: Bidders must be manufacturers or authorized dealers with minimum five years overall experience and five years relevant experience, with valid current or renewed PEC registration in the relevant category. Typically for street lighting supply contracts, bidders should hold valid NTN/SECP registration and sales tax compliance. No specific technical certifications are mentioned but PEC registration implies engineering component compliance.
