The Communication and Works Department of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is procuring extensive works for the revamping and strengthening of District Headquarters (DHQ) and secondary health facilities across multiple locations including Karak, Kohat, Parachinar, Mishti Mela Orakzai, and Hangu. This procurement covers non-teaching DHQs, building capacity enhancements to respond to COVID-19 and future pandemics, and improvements of accident and emergency units in newly merged districts. The scope involves civil works aligned with specialized codes detailed in the bidding documents, ensuring compliance with the latest health infrastructure standards. Eligible bidders must be registered with the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Revenue Authority (KPRA) and Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) in the relevant categories, specifically C-01 and C-02 or above, with proven experience in similar health sector projects. Firms should demonstrate financial soundness, technical capability, and have the necessary equipment to execute the works. The bidding process follows a single stage two envelope procedure requiring submission of technical and financial bids separately through the E-PAD system. The last date for submission of bids is 8th June 2026 at 12:00 PM, with technical bids opening the same day at 12:30 PM. Financial bids will be opened after approval of the technical bids by the competent authority. Bidders must submit earnest money in the form of call deposits or bank guarantees as per the instructions. The office of the Executive Engineer C&W Mega Projects South-I Kohat is the venue for bid opening. A practical tip for bidders is to carefully prepare the bid security documents and ensure the affidavit of 2% CDR or bank guarantee is submitted on judicial stamp paper before the deadline. Non-compliance with bid security requirements will lead to disqualification. Attention to detail in the technical proposal is crucial as failure to meet evaluation criteria will result in rejection. This tender offers a significant opportunity for contractors specializing in health infrastructure in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to contribute to vital public health improvements.
