For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
This is a recurring supply contract for specialised gas meter gasket components required in substantial monthly volumes (25,000–450,000 pieces per line item).
The procurement is restricted to pre-qualified vendors only, implying a vendor-approval process already exists; new entrants unable to gain pre-qualification status are ineligible. Scale is medium to large judging by monthly volumes and the five-item basket. Delivery begins just 07 days post-purchase order, requiring robust production and logistics capability. The fixed bid bond (PKR 202,000) is moderate relative to monthly order values, suggesting established supplier relationships. Bidders must already have FBR ATL status and capacity to serve a national utility's ongoing component requirements.
Who can bid: Suppliers must be pre-qualified by Sui Southern Gas Company under PPRA negotiated tendering provisions (clause 42(d)(i) & (ii)). Active FBR Active Tax Payer List (ATL) registration is mandatory. Pre-qualified status is the binding constraint; typically, suppliers must hold relevant engineering or manufacturing certifications (ISO 9001 or equivalent) and demonstrate prior supply experience to large utilities. No construction or PEC category applies; vendor registration with relevant trade authority is expected.
