Technical bids will be evaluated on criteria including past performance certificates, manufacturer authorization, financial statements, market experience, and technical staff qualifications. Earnest money in the form of a Call Deposit Receipt (CDR) amounting to 2% of the bid value is mandatory, along with a performance guarantee of 10% of the contract value upon award. The tender documents can be downloaded from the KPPRA and E-PADS portals or obtained from the office of the Superintendent, Sessions Court Kohistan Lower. Bids must be submitted electronically via the E-PADS system and hard copies delivered to the office of the District & Sessions Judge Kohistan Lower by 11:00 AM on 4th June 2026.

Delivery and installation must be completed within 14 days of the supply order issuance. A practical tip for bidders is to ensure that the original Call Deposit Receipt is sealed and placed inside the bid envelope as an affidavit, as failure to do so will render the bid non-responsive.

Strict adherence to submission guidelines and timely delivery will enhance chances of success in this competitive procurement process.
