For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
MEPCO is procuring goods for a World Bank-backed distribution network modernization initiative across Punjab.
This is a substantial infrastructure project targeting loss reduction in power systems—likely involving transformers, switchgear, metering, or cabling. Scale appears significant given World Bank involvement and MEPCO's geographic coverage. The extended timeline (closing August 2026) suggests complex specifications. One-off capital procurement rather than recurring supply.
Who can bid: Bidders must hold appropriate licenses and registrations for electrical distribution goods supply. Typically, SECP registration, valid NTN, and relevant electrical/manufacturing authority approvals are required. World Bank-funded projects typically mandate compliance with safeguarding policies and anti-corruption undertakings. Specific PEC category not stated.
