For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
WAPDA is procuring specialized NQ-size high-pressure inflatable/deflatable packers for laboratory testing under the Decade of Dams initiative.
This is a one-off equipment purchase for CMTL's Lahore facility, likely small-volume but technically specialized. The tight July 2026 deadline and EPADS-only submission requirement suggest a straightforward procurement with no construction component. Suppliers must understand packers' application in borehole/core testing contexts to position competitively.
Who can bid: Bidders must register on EPADS v2.0 (federal platform) before submission. No explicit PEC category stated; this appears non-construction procurement of testing equipment. Typically, NTN and valid business registration (SECP) required. WAPDA has reserved fiscal 2026-27 funds, implying vendor capability to fulfill during that period.
