CPDO Sindh seeks qualified independent auditors to assess electricity transmission/distribution losses and theft prevention effectiveness.
This is a professional services engagement rather than supply or construction, requiring demonstrable power sector experience. The tight 180-day closing timeline from publication suggests urgent need. Single-stage bidding with separate technical and financial envelopes indicates CPDO will evaluate capability before cost. Suitable for consulting firms specializing in power distribution audits; niche but recurring need across Pakistani distribution utilities.
Who can bid: Bidders must be registered with relevant professional bodies and possess demonstrated experience in power sector auditing and loss assessment. Typically required: valid NTN, auditing credentials, prior similar assignments in utility sector, technical team qualifications. Any restrictions on foreign vs. local bidders are not stated but single-stage process suggests pre-qualification focus.
