Brahmaputra Infrastructure Limited has officially emerged as the lowest bidder (L1) for a major highway maintenance contract in Mizoram. The domestic project, valued at ₹70.18 crores, was issued by the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRT&H) of the Government of India and is being executed through the Chief Engineer, PWD (Highway) in Aizawl.
Project Scope and Timeline
The contract focuses on a Performance-Based Maintenance Contract (PBMC) on the NH-502A corridor under Job Number PBMC/502A/MZ/2025-26/130. Operating under the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) mode, the Multi Modal Project Division of the company will handle the operation and maintenance of an 87.180 km stretch (from Km 0.000 to Km 87.180).
The contract tenure spans 60 months (5 years) and encompasses comprehensive management of the corridor, including crucial monsoon maintenance periods.
Strategic and Regional Significance
The NH-502A corridor is located in southern Mizoram, serving as a critical infrastructure link connecting Lawngtlai with the India-Myanmar border. Due to the remote location and demanding terrain, executing the contract requires Brahmaputra Infrastructure to establish a robust local footprint, including specialized plants, machinery, camps, logistics, and skilled manpower.
Management notes that the India-Myanmar border belt is seeing an increase in infrastructure development, aligned with federal initiatives to strengthen security and connectivity. By deploying and consolidating its assets for this five-year project, the company intends to lower future mobilization costs, establishing a competitive advantage for upcoming tenders floated by the Border Roads Organisation (BRO), MoRT&H, and local PWD units.
The company clarifies that while it has emerged as the L1 bidder, the finalization of the project remains subject to standard post-bid evaluation procedures, the formal award of work, and the satisfaction of customary conditions precedent.
