For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender, written with AI from the official notice and checked by our quality rules — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
Government procurement for modest IT hardware: 10 laptops, 10 B&W printers, 5 shredders with full installation and Islamabad delivery.
Small-value single-purchase contract. Notably, bid security retained until June 2027 (8 months post-award), and rate validity extends through FY26-27 end—suggests potential for scope expansion or phased rollout. Must quote in PKR only; no currency hedging permitted. Straightforward supply category but government procurement pace can be unpredictable.
Who can bid: Bidders must be registered with FBR (Sales Tax and Income Tax departments), hold valid GST and vendor registration numbers, and possess active NTN. Blacklisted firms excluded. Typically, firms should also confirm no debarment by PPRA or other procurement authorities; PEC registration not mentioned, suggesting non-construction classification.
