Tank Spares and Engine Assemblies Procurement by Directorate General Procurement (Army)

Eligible bidders must possess NTN certificates and registration from the Directorate General Defense Purchase (DGDP). Applicants must submit attested copies of sales tax and NTN registration certificates, proof of godwon (warehouse), undertakings for adequate financial capability matching tender value, attested bank statements for the preceding year, attested photocopies of the Managing Director's CNIC, certificates confirming the firm is neither a defaulter nor blacklisted by any government organization, detailed work experience records with government or semi-government entities, and a complete inventory of moveable and immoveable assets. Non-registered and non-indexed manufacturing firms or agents must provide justifiable proof of manufacturing capability or verifiable certificates from original manufacturers. An original challan form 32-A receipted for Rs 2,000 deposited into government treasury in favour of CMA (DP) Rawalpindi (debit Major Head C02501-20, Main Head-12, Sub Head-A, Miscellaneous Code Head 1/845/30) is mandatory for all firms.

Bid security of 5 percent of the quoted value (maximum Rs 1 Million) must be submitted as a bank draft or pay order in favour of CMA (DP) Rawalpindi with the offer as earnest money. Tender documents and complete specifications are available from DGP (Army) upon presentation of required credentials. Offers remain valid for 120 days from the date of opening of the commercial offer. Performance bank guarantees of 10 percent of contract value must be furnished within 30 to 45 days of contract signature. Tender submission deadlines vary by category: 20 October 2026 for VT-4 spares (opening 21 October), 2 November 2026 for T-80UD spares (opening 3 November), 27 October 2026 for Al-Khalid engine assemblies (opening 27 October), and 22 October 2026 for parachutes (opening 22 October at 1100 hrs). All tenders will be opened in the DGP (Army) tender room in the presence of firm representatives. For further information, contact DGP (Army) Rawalpindi by telephone 051-9280681, 051-9280682, or fax 051-9280909, or visit www.ppra.org.pk.

Staggered submission dates (late October, early November 2026) suggest related but separately evaluated procurements. Notably, T-80UD spares allow open and commitment basis bidding, indicating potential flexibility. All require DGDP registration, full financial disclosure, and Rs 2,000 challan. The Al-Khalid and parachute tenders have same-day submission and opening, suggesting expedited handling. Bid security capped at Rs 1 Million may favour larger established contractors. Lead times are substantial, indicating high-complexity, long-gestation supply chains.

Who can bid: Bidders must hold active NTN certificates and DGDP registration. Attested bank statements (one year), CNIC of MD, and proof of warehouse are mandatory. Firms must certify non-blacklisting and non-default status. Manufacturing firms or agents must demonstrate manufacturing capability or hold verifiable original manufacturer or agency agreements. Typically, military procurement vendors in Pakistan must also hold valid GST registration and demonstrate prior supply to government or semi-government organizations.
