The scope includes hiring vehicles with seating capacities ranging from 26 to 57 seats, covering multiple routes such as Scheme More, Sher Shah Colony, Lari Ada Raiwind, Chak-65 Manga By Pass, Sundar State, Niaz Baig Pind, Sultan Ke, Bata Factory, Dream Garden, Taro Gill, Eastern Spinning-II, and Pajjan Raiwind Road.

Earnest Money in the form of a Call Deposit Receipt (CDR) equivalent to 2% of the total estimated cost (PKR 228,000) is required. The original physical CDR must be submitted to the school office before the closing time of the e-bid submission. The procurement follows a Single Stage Two Envelope bidding procedure with separate technical and financial bids submitted online via the E-Pak Acquisition and Disposal System (E-PADS) portal. The last date for bid submission is **11th July 2026 at 11:00 a.m.**, with technical bids opening the same day at 11:30 a.m. Financial bids will be opened on 22nd July 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Bidders should ensure their bids are complete, signed, stamped, and submitted only through the E-PADS system.
