Call Deposit Receipt Submission Amendment for District Council Kasur E-Procurement

This corrigendum notice is issued by the District Council Kasur regarding the previously published E-Procurement Notice under DGPR IPL No 7349. The amendment specifically addresses the submission process of the Call Deposit Receipt (CDR) for prospective bidders. The procurement is managed by the District Council Kasur, located in Kasur city, Punjab province. Items being procured: Specific item list not provided in the notice. The key amendment requires bidders to upload a scanned copy of the Call Deposit Receipt (CDR) issued by any scheduled bank at 5% of the estimated cost on the Punjab E-Procurement System (EPADS). Importantly, no physical submission of the CDR to the office is required. The uploaded CDR will be verified online and processed in accordance with the amended Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) Rules 2014 and EPADS regulations. This procurement process is conducted through the Punjab E-Procurement System, ensuring transparency and efficiency. Bidders should ensure their registration on EPADS and comply with all technical and financial bid requirements as per the original notice. Eligibility criteria such as PEC category, FBR registration, and relevant experience should be confirmed from the original tender documents. The submission deadline remains unchanged and bidders must adhere to the specified closing date. All other terms and conditions from the original E-Procurement Notice remain valid. A practical tip for bidders is to carefully follow the online submission guidelines on EPADS, especially regarding the scanned CDR upload, to avoid disqualification due to non-compliance. Ensuring the CDR is correctly uploaded and matches the required 5% of the estimated cost is crucial for successful bid acceptance. This amendment streamlines the submission process, reducing the need for physical document handling and aligning with digital procurement best practices in Punjab.
