For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
LESCO is disposing approximately 307 metric tons of scrap materials comprising dismantle tower components and redundant power cable copper in two separate lots. This is a high-volume commodity disposal requiring scrap handling and logistics capability. Bid security is substantial (690,000 PKR total), suggesting competitive bidding is anticipated. The tender follows standard PPRA procurement rules with physical inspection available beforehand. The closing date is 6 August 2026, providing standard bidding period. This appears to be a one-off disposal rather than recurring, typical for utility asset clearance operations.
Who can bid: The notice does not explicitly state eligibility restrictions. Typically, bidders for scrap disposal must possess valid business registration (SECP for companies or relevant provincial authority for sole proprietorships), current NTN and GST registration, and may require environmental or industrial licenses depending on provincial regulations. Bidders should verify LESCO's specific requirements in the full bidding document.
