Three open tenders for bulk supply of construction materials (cement, steel tie bars, crushed stone) to Pakistan Railways' concrete sleeper factories.
Combined estimated value exceeds Rs 12 crore. All three tenders close on the same date with single-stage bidding. Requirements are material-heavy with substantial bid securities; suppliers must demonstrate manufacturing/distribution capacity for industrial-scale quantities and have already-active EPADS registration. Competition likely moderate to high given scale.
Who can bid: Bidders must be registered with Sales Tax and Income Tax departments, possess valid EPADS V2.0 registration, and be classified as manufacturer, supplier, bidder or contractor. Typical eligibility for such material procurement also typically requires active business registration (SECP/NADRA) and audited financial statements demonstrating solvency.
