Description / Scope of Work
Pakistan Navy's Local Purchase Division invites tenders for the supply of three categories of industrial consumables and chemicals required for naval operations and maintenance. The procurement includes 100 litres of NASA anti-freeze ethylene glycol coolant (2.5 litre packing, meeting GM 1899M and 1825M standards), 500 litres of SAE 20W-50 API SL lubricating oil for petrol engines in 4-litre and 20-litre packings, and 280 litres of membrane protect chemical for reverse osmosis plant operation sourced from the UK. All items are to be supplied to Sindh province with tenders closing on 13 October 2026 and opening immediately thereafter. The scope represents routine operational supplies for naval fleet maintenance and water treatment systems.
All firms, whether registered or unregistered with relevant authorities, must submit tenders by the deadline. A non-refundable tender fee of Rs 500 per quotation is mandatory, payable via bank draft, pay order, crossed cheque or online transfer to the PN Nonpublic Fund LP Division account (PK04 MEZN 0001 7001 0321 0586). Unregistered firms must additionally provide a bank guarantee at five percent of the purchase order value, valid for six months, though registration with HQ COMLOG (contact SO Contract at 021-48506138) eliminates this requirement.

For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
Three small-volume consumables supplies sought: 100L ethylene glycol coolant, 500L SAE 20W-50 oil, and 280L RO plant chemical.
The tender opens October 2026, permitting 6+ months preparation. Non-registered bidders face 5% bid security burden; early registration with COMLOG could reduce cost and strengthen competitiveness. Specifications for glycol and oil are standard (GM, ASTM, CUMMINS-compliant); RO chemical appears to have limited technical detail. Delivery windows differ by origin (15 days local, 45 days imported), suggesting supplier logistics matter. This appears routine repeat supply, not one-off.
Who can bid: Both registered and unregistered firms may bid. Unregistered firms must post 5% bank guarantee valid 6 months; registered firms do not. The notice does not specify PEC, NTN, or SECP registration mandates for general suppliers, though Defence procurement typically requires companies to be tax-registered (NTN). Overseas suppliers for the UK-sourced chemical are permitted.
