agreement subject to approval/revisions of the same by Planning and Development Department
government of Balochistan/Employer during the negotiations. Similarly, all other services and the
content contributing to services shall be deemed part of the contract agreement unless it is specified
for any particular item up-front in your technical proposal which obviously will make your proposal

deemed that the consultant is in 100% agreement to the above. You are also advised to kindly read
the RFP thoroughly as it can drastically affect the price structure for various services which may
not be appearing directly in the terms of reference. In the end, we appreciate your participation and
hope that you will feed a good proposal to merit consideration by Planning and Development

providing clear direction to the long term future development activities in an area
encompassing all sectors and segments of life in integrated manner. The master plan sets
policies, regarding growth and development. The information and concepts presented in the
master plan are intended to guide local decisions on public and private use of land and
natural resources as well as the provision of public facilities to improve the living conditions
of the residents.

The proposed study is aimed at carrying out a detailed master planning of Mastung
and Hub Town so as to enabling the authorities to initiate further projects for the
development of Mastung and Lasbella district.

In Balochistan industrial development started after 1970, when Provincial
Government took keen interest in development of industrial estates because of availability of
mineral related raw material beside agricultural crops, fruits, vegetables and fish. Thus, one
industrial estate was established in Quetta and another at Uthal in Lasbela District. Initially,
the results were not very encouraging as the estates could not attract any significant
investment.

which developed interest of investors in Hub Industrial Estates and industries started
flourishing during the decade of 80’s LIEDA dived the Hub Industrial Estate into 10 sectors
and issued 334 NOCs (No Objection Certificates) for establishment of various types of
industries under these sectors.

The key to success of Hub Industrial Estate was that the Government facilitated industrialist
with tax free zone and inexpensive plots as compared to other industrial estates. Secondly,
Karachi being closer to Hub proved a major source of skilled labor to the industrialist.

CLIENT’S REQUIREMENTS FROM THE CONSULTANTS

CLIENT’S Some important requirements are:


REQUIREMENTS
FROM THE 1. Selecting a Consulting Engineer is one of the most important
CONSULTANTS decisions an owner or Client makes. The most important
standards for this are technical competence, managerial ability,
professional integrity and fairness of fee structure. The Client
will seek information on all these aspects by:

a. Obtaining comprehensive written information from the


Consultant in form of RFPs and should be completed in
full providing all details as correctly known as possible. It
has been experienced that some Consultants try to hide
their deficiencies viz-a-viz the requirements of TOR by
making unclear and vague statement. It will be policy of
evaluators that vague statement and lack of clarity in
proposals on specific issues may be reason to downgrade
the rating.

b. Talking to the senior personnel of the Consultants.

c. Consulting their Clients.

d. Viewing the projects that they have accomplished and visit


the users.

e. Visiting the premises of the Consultant and examining


systems and method of works as well as hardware and
software abilities available.

f. The approach and methodology proposed including work


plan, activity and man-month schedule should be
meaningful and fully coordinated to judge the
understanding of the proposed assignment by the
Consultant.
