Bid securities are required as Call Deposit Receipts (CDR) with amounts varying based on the bid percentage below the engineer's estimate.

Pro-Tip: Ensure your bid documents are free from cutting or overwriting, and double-check the detailed rate analysis and additional security requirements for bids below 10% of the engineer's estimate. Missing these often leads to disqualification. Also, register early on EPADS to avoid last-minute submission issues.
