Development of Souvenir Shops for Morra Bar Qilla and Mandur Pheasantries in Swat

The Wildlife Department Khyber Pakhtunkhwa invites bids for the development of souvenir shops at Morra Bar Qilla Pheasantry in Tehsil Babuzai and Mandur Pheasantry in Tehsil Matta, both located in Swat. This procurement is specific to the Lower Swat Wildlife Division and aims to enhance visitor facilities by constructing souvenir shops at these wildlife parks. The scope includes civil works for the shops, requiring firms with relevant PEC C-6 category or above and experience in similar engineering projects. Bidders must be registered with the Pakistan Engineering Council for the fiscal year 2025-26 and hold active registrations with the Federal Board of Revenue and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Revenue Authority. The tender requires submission of earnest money in the form of 2% bid security as a Call Deposit Receipt (CDR) from a scheduled bank in favor of the Divisional Forest Officer Lower Swat Wildlife Division. Additional security may be required for bids significantly below the engineer's estimate, with clear guidelines on submission and forfeiture. The last date for electronic bid submission is **12-05-2026 at 12:00 PM**, with bid opening on the same day at 12:30 PM. Bidders must upload scanned copies of all documents on the EPADS portal and submit hard copies in sealed envelopes to the Divisional Forest Officer Lower Swat Wildlife Division office in Saidu Sharif Swat via registered courier before the deadline. Any discrepancies between electronic and hard copies will lead to disqualification. A practical tip for bidders is to ensure that all bid documents, including the tender form and BOQs, are filled neatly without any cutting or overwriting. This attention to detail can prevent disqualification due to non-compliance. Also, bidders should prepare detailed rate analysis if bidding more than 20% below the estimate to avoid rejection. This tender offers a valuable opportunity for contractors with PEC C-6 engineering credentials to participate in a government project enhancing wildlife tourism infrastructure in Swat.
