CDA to Outsource Waste Management in Islamabad

The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has announced its decision to outsource the sanitation system for both rural and urban areas in Islamabad.

This move is expected to improve the quality of sanitation services and to bring uniformity in the system across the city.

As per the plan, the CDA will create separate plans for rural and urban areas under the contracting system. A tender has already been issued to seek the services of a consultant who will advise the CDA on alternative methods of outsourcing. The consultant will act as a third party and will provide valuable insight into the outsourcing process.

In urban areas, cleaning machinery will be used by the CDA, while the staff will be provided by the contractors. On the other hand, in rural areas, the complete sanitation system and machinery will be used by the contractors. The contractors will also be responsible for picking up the garbage from the city and transporting it to the dumping site.

The outsourcing work is still in its initial stages and will be completed soon. According to Director Sanitation Malik Attaullah, the CDA’s cleaning staff will also be used in the outsourcing process, which will create job opportunities for the local population.

One of the main advantages of outsourcing the sanitation system is that it will put an end to the disparity in the sanitation system between rural and urban Islamabad.

The Director believes that outsourcing will lead to better management and maintenance of the sanitation system, which will ultimately benefit the residents of the city.


  • Best practices are well know in handling of waste management.We as a nation polluted every sphere of life.All our five aqua rivers are converted into Nullahs.CDA and MCR both had polluted the fresh water Swan River into big Nullah.Which is crime and playing with the health of twin cities.
    There is high need to install water treatment plant on Nullah lye and Catchment area of Swan River to convert affluent water into to fresh water.

    • Al barak and other companies working
      Yes there will be new jobs for job less
      But
      Kindly think for one second
      Where are the reprocessing plant
      Only to collect and dump is just west of money
      And
      To throw money for the garbage
