establishment, and CMPP coupe maintenance across Bhakkar division. The contract is recurring (annual maintenance of established coupes plus new afforestation), indicating potential for multi-year engagement. Bid security requirements are substantial (5% of estimated cost), and all work must be executed through the e-Procurement System with mandatory PEC and tax registration. The range of activities—from pit-digging and planting to hand-watering and pest control—suggests the work suits medium-scale contractors with labour capacity and horticultural expertise.
Who can bid: Bidders must hold valid PEC registration (category to be verified), possess FBR tax certificate and professional tax certificate current for 2026-27, and be registered on the e-Procurement System (EP-PUN/JAR). Typically, afforestation and maintenance contracts require PEC Grade IV or above, valid NTN, and labour licence; however, the notice does not explicitly state these requirements.
