For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
IESCO requires supply of high-specification 15 kV XLPE power cable in single-core configuration (240MM2/500MCM unarmoured). The procurement appears to be a moderate-to-large scale infrastructure supply contract under two-envelope bidding. Key consideration: bidders must verify production capacity and quality certifications for high-voltage cable meeting Pakistani/international standards. The August 2026 closing indicates reasonable preparation time. No framework or recurring contract language is evident, suggesting this is a discrete supply order.
Who can bid: Specific eligibility criteria are detailed in the bid data sheet (page 28) not fully reproduced in this excerpt. Typically for goods supply of this category, vendors must hold valid business registration (NTN and relevant provincial authority), relevant electrical/manufacturing certifications, and demonstrable experience in similar cable supply. PEC membership is not applicable as this is goods, not construction.
