TMA Abbottabad Tender for Waiting Area Construction at Service Delivery Center

Tehsil Municipal Administration Abbottabad, Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, invites electronic bids from eligible firms and contractors for construction of a waiting area at the Service Delivery Center Abbottabad. Bidding will follow the single-stage, single-envelope procedure through the E-PADS system under the KPPRA Procurement Rules 2014.

Bidding documents and the tender form can be downloaded from https://portalkp.eprocure.gov.pk after publication of the notice. The tender form must be completed neatly, and a copy must be uploaded through E-PADS when submitting the bid. For information, contact TMA Abbottabad at tmaabbottabad@gmail.com or 0992-9310123.

Before the closing time, bidders must deliver the original 2% bid security, applicable additional call deposit receipts, mandatory registration documents for 2026–27, a PEC licence in the relevant class, LGR registration, a valid KPPRA certificate, and a CNIC copy to the Tehsil Officer (Infrastructure), TMA Abbottabad, near the main gate on Jinnah Road, Abbottabad. Call deposit receipts must be in favour of the TMO, TMA Abbottabad, and must be prepared after publication of the notice and before the bid closing time.

Contractors quoting up to 10% below the Engineer’s Estimate must submit bid security equal to 2% of the Engineer’s Estimate. Contractors quoting more than 10% and up to 20% below the Engineer’s Estimate must also submit additional security equal to 8% of the Engineer’s Estimate. If a bid carrying the required additional security is not accepted, the additional security will be released after the lowest bidder’s financial bid has been evaluated.

Contractors quoting more than 20% below the Engineer’s Estimate must submit additional security equal to the difference between the bid amount and the Engineer’s Estimate, together with detailed rate analysis. If the submitted rate analysis does not justify a bid more than 20% below the estimate, the bid will be treated as non-responsive and the securities submitted with it will be forfeited in favour of the Government. Incomplete, incoherent, or missing detailed rate analysis will also make the bid non-responsive, and any earnest money will be forfeited.

Quoted rates must be entered clearly in both words and figures on the tender form. Incomplete entries, overwriting, conflicting entries, materially incorrect information, or failure to submit the tender form in the required manner through E-PADS will result in disqualification and treatment of the bid as non-responsive under KPPRA rules.

The work order will be issued subject to the availability of funds. If responsive bidders quote identical rates, the final decision may be made by a toss. All bidders must be registered with the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Revenue Authority under the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Finance Act 2013.

All material testing and other tests must be performed by the contractor whenever required by the procuring entity, at the contractor’s own cost and risk. Future rates, taxes, and other government or competent-authority levies will apply. The bid securities of the first, second, and third lowest electronic bidders will be retained by the department until approval of the bid. Additional tender conditions will be implemented under KPPRA rules.
