PCMMDC seeks qualified security service providers to supply armed guards at two cattle market facilities in Faisalabad and Jhang districts.
This is a recurring service contract for four and twelve guards respectively, with a combined estimated value exceeding PKR 6 million. Bidders must navigate electronic submission through the Punjab eP portal and possess valid security sector licensing. The tight ten-day submission window and requirement for 5% bid security demand rapid mobilisation. Recurring nature suggests potential for contract renewal if performance meets standards.
Who can bid: Bidders must be registered security services companies or licensed individuals with competent authority registration, valid NTN, and active STRN/PRA status. The notice explicitly requires these credentials before bid submission. Typically, security service providers also require police clearance and compliance with labour laws including minimum wage and EOBI/PESSI contributions.
