Prequalification of Auto Workshops for Repair and Maintenance of Pink Bus Fleet

The Ministry of Federal Education and Professional Training Islamabad invites reputable automobile workshops and firms based in Rawalpindi and Islamabad for prequalification to provide repair, maintenance, and supply of spare parts for the Ministry's Pink Bus Fleet and official vehicles under a Framework Agreement for the financial year 2026-27. This procurement is specifically for workshops with their own operational setup including garage, stock, and skilled manpower capable of handling mechanical and electrical repairs. The scope covers preventive and corrective maintenance, engine overhauling, electrical repairs, suspension, steering, brake system repairs, denting, painting, body fabrication, replacement of genuine spare parts, supply and installation of batteries and tyres, wheel alignment, balancing, and emergency roadside assistance. Eligible bidders must be legally registered in Pakistan with valid NTN and GST registration, appear on the Active Taxpayers List, and not be blacklisted by any government agency. A minimum of five years' relevant experience is required along with adequate financial capability and workshop infrastructure. The workshops must have telephone and internet communication facilities and secure parking for official vehicles. The prequalification process includes submission of technical proposals through the PPRA e-PADS portal and hard copies of required documents including Earnest Money in the form of a Bank Draft of Rs. 1,200,000. The deadline for submission is **17th July, 2026 by 02:00 PM** with opening at 02:30 PM on the same day at the Ministry's office in Islamabad. A practical tip for bidders is to ensure all required documents including affidavits, financial statements, and proof of experience are complete and properly attested on company letterhead to avoid disqualification. Also, prepare for a physical inspection of the workshop premises as part of the evaluation. Timely submission of the Earnest Money and compliance with all terms and conditions will strengthen your bid. This is a valuable opportunity to secure a framework contract with a federal ministry for ongoing vehicle maintenance services.
