Tender Details
Description / Scope of Work
This tender invites bids for the construction of RCC tower foundations under the SCADA Phase II project, covering 121 sites distributed across Multan, Faisalabad, and Wah in Punjab province. The project includes excavation of foundation pits for buildings and structures, with dressing, refilling, watering and ramming of excavated earth to specified depths (up to 30 m with 5 ft lift), plus supply and placement of cement concrete, reinforced concrete structural members, and mild steel reinforcement. Work encompasses foundations, roof slabs, beams, columns, lintels, girders and other structural elements, to be executed in situ or precast and laid in position. The bid sheet presents unit rates for major items including excavation in hard/soft soil (76 cft), plain cement concrete (6 cft at 1:4:8 ratio), and reinforced concrete with Type C nominal mix (58 cft), plus fabrication and placement of deformed steel reinforcement bars (112 kg). The total value shall be computed by multiplying each line item quantity by the bidder's offered rate, then multiplying the foundation cost by 121 sites, with 16% PST applied, resulting in a grand total. Sites are distributed across multiple towns in Multan district, Faisalabad district, and Wah.
For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
This is a large-scale, geographically dispersed civil works contract for tower foundation construction across 121 locations in three Punjab districts.
The scope combines site-specific excavation, concrete placement, and steel reinforcement works. Scale is substantial (quantities suggest multiple million rupees post-PST); bidders must have capacity for concurrent execution across dispersed sites and proven experience with foundation and structural concrete work. The bid sheet structure—unit rates applied across 121 identical sites—suggests potential for framework or phased award rather than lump-sum, favouring contractors with established site logistics.
Who can bid: Typically, construction contracts of this scale and complexity require bidders to hold valid PEC (Pakistan Engineering Council) category licences appropriate to building/civil works, possess NTN and SECP registration, and demonstrate technical capacity and financial stability. The notice does not explicitly state minimum PEC category, experience, or bid security percentage; standard Punjab government procurement norms (typically 2–5% bid security) are likely applicable.
