Routine Maintenance Works 2026-27 in Northern Area's Region

The National Highway Authority (NHA) invites bids for routine maintenance works for the fiscal year 2026-27 in the Northern Area's Region, specifically in Abbottabad. This procurement is aimed at contractors registered with the Income Tax Department and active on the Federal Board of Revenue's taxpayers list. Bidders must hold valid registration with the Pakistan Engineering Council in Category C-5 or above, with specialization in CE-01 and CE-10. The scope covers multiple contract segments along routes N-35, N-125, N-15, and E-35, involving maintenance over various kilometer stretches with estimated costs ranging around PKR 9.4 million to PKR 12.9 million per segment. The completion period for each contract is 12 months. The technical scope includes routine maintenance activities on national highways, requiring experienced contractors capable of handling civil works and road upkeep. Bidders must submit their bids through the NHA's e-Bidding system, following the Single Stage Two Envelope procurement method. The bid documents will be available for free download from the NHA website starting July 6, 2026. The deadline for bid submission is July 15, 2026, by 11:30 AM, with technical bids opening the same day at 12:00 PM. Eligibility criteria emphasize PEC registration in the specified categories, valid FBR registration, and active taxpayer status. Contractors should ensure their bids are complete and accurate to avoid disqualification or legal action. Financial bids of the lowest evaluated bidders in two RM contracts of FY 2026-27 will be opened, with further bids from those firms not considered. A practical tip for bidders is to register immediately on the EPADS (PPRA) portal at www.eprocure.gov.pk, as manual hard copy bids will be phased out in upcoming procurements. This will ensure compliance and smooth participation in the e-bidding process. Interested parties should contact the General Manager (NAs) at the NHA Complex, Havelian Interchange, Abbottabad, via phone 0992-920910 or email dirmaint-na@nha.gov.pk for further information.
