BBSHRRDB is procuring skills training services across Sindh for Phase XVII at estimated value PKR 250 million.
This is an annual framework engagement for vocational training delivery to youth aged 18-35, indicating recurring large-scale procurement. Tight submission deadline (October 20 2026) requires immediate preparation of dual-envelope proposals. Affiliation with SBTE or HEC is mandatory; turnover threshold of PKR 0.5 million is relatively modest. Competition likely from established provincial training providers. Physical submission of securities alongside electronic bid submission adds logistical complexity.
Who can bid: Institutes must be affiliated with SBTE, Sindh HEC, or authorized accredited body holding national/international certification. Mandatory: minimum PKR 0.5 million annual turnover (audited), active FBR tax filer status, SRB Sales Tax Registration, and non-blacklisting undertaking. Typically, training providers must demonstrate institutional capacity, qualified faculty, and infrastructure capability, though specifics are not detailed in this notice.
