A twelve-month framework contract for lift maintenance covering three units at Multan's Nishtar Institute.
The estimated value of Rs. 540,000 annually (Rs. 45,000 monthly) suggests a medium-scale recurring engagement with stable revenue. Key requirements include local workshop presence in Multan, qualified technicians with experience certificates, and rapid fault response (forty-eight-hour replacement deadline). Performance penalties for downtime and quarterly functionality certification indicate demanding service standards. The tender uses the two-envelope system with technical evaluation preceding financial opening, so technical compliance is critical.
Who can bid: Bidders must be registered with income tax and sales tax departments and possess a documented workshop or office in Multan. Qualified technical personnel with experience certificates must be listed. Firms blacklisted by any government authority are ineligible. Typically, lift maintenance contractors require valid trade licenses and may need equipment certification; the notice does not explicitly state these but they are standard industry requirements.
