Strengthening Ombudsperson Secretariat and Development of Prefab Stalls in Peshawar

This tender invites qualified contractors registered with the Communication & Works Department, Building Division-I, Peshawar, to undertake two significant projects in Peshawar under the Construction & Civil Works category. The first project involves strengthening the Ombudsperson Secretariat for Protection Against Harassment of Women, ensuring a secure and functional workplace. The second project focuses on the development and installation of prefab stalls in Nishtar Hall, enhancing local artisan facilities. Both projects require contractors to comply with the Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) licensing for the 2025-26 financial year and registration with the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Revenue Authority (KPRA). The work demands careful attention to structural integrity and quality materials, with engineering challenges including site-specific adaptations and adherence to local construction standards in Peshawar. Bidders must hold valid PEC categories CE-09/CE-10 and EE-04/EE-06 among others, and maintain active FBR and KPRA status. The tender emphasizes compliance with KPPRA regulations, including submission of earnest money in the form of Call Deposit Receipt (CDR) from scheduled banks. Contractors quoting bids significantly below the engineer's estimate must provide additional security and detailed rate analysis to avoid disqualification. The submission deadline is set for 09 April 2026, with bid opening scheduled on the same day at 12:30 hours. Bidders must upload their bids through the E-PAD system and submit original CDRs via courier before the bid opening time. The physical address for queries and submissions is the Communication & Works Department, Building Division-I, Peshawar. Pro-Tip: Ensure all bid documents, especially the original CDR and detailed rate analysis for bids below 10% of the engineer's estimate, are submitted timely and correctly. Missing or incomplete documents lead to non-responsiveness and forfeiture of bid security. Also, verify the exact PEC category codes and KPRA registration status to avoid disqualification.
