The tender will be conducted under the 19th article of the 4734 Public Procurement Law and will only accept electronic submissions via EKAP. Bids must be submitted by August 12, 2026, at 10:30 AM at the 3rd Kor.K.lığı Tender Commission Hall in Maslak. Only domestic contractors can participate, and bids will be submitted on a turnkey basis. Bidders must provide a temporary guarantee of at least 3% of the bid amount. The tender period is 45 days, and the work start date is within 7 days of the contract signing. Tender documents are available on EKAP. The fact that this tender is for a public institution and the military dormitory repairs will be funded by public budgets is noteworthy.
Markets are likely to be cautious due to delays and cost increases in public tenders. The funding of military dormitory repairs from public budgets could lead to higher costs. Additionally, the tender being open only to domestic contractors will test the competitive strength of the domestic construction sector.
