Procurement of Security Services (Security Guards) for GPA Head Office and Establishments

The Gwadar Port Authority (Gwadar Port Authority) is procuring Security Services for its GPA Head Office and associated establishments located in Gwadar, Balochistan. This procurement is planned for the financial year 2026-27 and involves deployment of 25 security guards across multiple GPA facilities including GPA House, GPA Complex, GPA Civic Centre, GPA Guest House, and other key locations such as the 1.2 MGD Desalination Water Plant and Commercial Complex. The scope of work includes provision of trained and licensed security personnel equipped with necessary tools such as walkie talkies, hand held metal detectors, and vehicle search mirrors. The security guards must be capable of handling emergency situations including bomb blasts, earthquakes, and fire incidents. The contractor must ensure compliance with government regulations on wages, social security contributions, and medical fitness of guards. The contract also requires the security company to have valid licenses from the Home Departments of Balochistan and Sindh, registration with SECP and social security, and past experience of at least one work order in the last three years. Bidders must submit their bids online through EPADS v2.0 by the deadline of Tuesday, July 21, 2026 at 10:00 AM. The technical and financial bids will be evaluated using Least Cost Based Selection (LCBS) technique. Manual submissions are not accepted. The bid security must be submitted in prescribed forms and original bid security documents must be delivered to the GPA Head Office before the deadline. The successful bidder will be required to provide a performance guarantee equivalent to two months remuneration within one week of contract award. A practical tip for bidders is to ensure timely registration on EPADS v2.0 and to carefully prepare the bid security documents as failure to submit original bid security on time will lead to disqualification. Also, bidders should strictly adhere to the minimum wage requirements set by the Government of Pakistan to avoid rejection of bids. This tender offers a significant opportunity for security service providers with valid licenses and proven experience to engage with a prestigious authority in Gwadar.
