Rescue 1122 Sindh seeks a legal firm for one-year advisory retainer (FY 2026-27) valued at Rs 2M.
This is institutional counsel work for a provincial emergency services agency—likely covering regulatory compliance, labour matters, procurement disputes, and operational legal issues. Single-stage process indicates straightforward selection. Notable: tight 9-month runway from notice date; Least Cost Selection suggests competitive pricing pressure; government client implies payment reliability but slow drawdown cycles typical of public sector.
Who can bid: Registered legal firm under Pakistan Bar Council with valid practising certificate(s). Must obtain NTN and provide bank guarantee (2% of contract value = Rs 40,000). Typically requires SECP registration or equivalent professional standing. No PEC category applicable (non-construction). No stated restrictions on firm size or location, though Karachi-based operation advantageous for direct engagement.
