Sialkot International Airport Limited
(SIAL) has invited technical and financial proposals from qualified consultants
and consultancy firms to conduct a comprehensive manpower analysis and

improving operational efficiency.
The
airport is seeking consultants with proven expertise in aviation management and
workforce planning to assess its existing organizational structure and
recommend an optimum staffing model aligned with international best practices.
The
study will include a Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats
(SWOT) analysis of SIAL's organizational structure and workforce, along
with an assessment of manpower requirements based on current and anticipated
operational demands.

According
to the terms of reference, the selected consultant will review departmental
headcounts, job responsibilities, duty rosters and overtime arrangements. The
assessment will also examine staffing requirements in relation to flight
schedules, aircraft movements, passenger and cargo volumes, peak-hour demand
and support functions.
The
consultancy will be expected to identify staffing shortages and surplus
capacity, while examining opportunities for employee redeployment, multitasking
and process improvements. Staffing levels and productivity will also be
benchmarked against comparable airport and ground-handling operations.
The
final recommendations are expected to include department-wise staffing
requirements and deployment arrangements for both current operations and
potential future growth. The consultant will also be required to prepare a
comprehensive manpower planning model and a phased implementation plan that
takes into account regulatory requirements, operational continuity and
potential implications for employees.
Eligibility Requirements
SIAL
said applicants must demonstrate relevant qualifications and substantial
professional experience in aviation management and workforce planning.
Consultants
or firms should also have a proven track record in conducting manpower
assessments, organizational reviews or workforce rationalization studies for
