Bidders must also be registered with the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) and respective revenue boards for income and sales tax, and be active taxpayers. The tender is specifically for contractors experienced in civil works and infrastructure development. The bidding documents, including detailed terms, conditions, bid security requirements, and procurement methods, are available electronically and can be downloaded free of cost from the official PPRA e-procurement website. The original bid security instrument must be submitted physically before the online bid submission deadline to avoid disqualification. The deadline for bid submission is **20th July 2026 at 11:00 AM**, with bid opening scheduled for the same day at 11:30 AM via the EPADs system. Bidders are advised to ensure timely submission of both electronic bids and physical bid security.
