For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
SSGC seeks a single cooling unit for an air handling system—likely a replacement or upgrade for their Karachi facility.
Scale appears small-to-medium (one equipment item, not bulk supply). Notable: e-bidding only via EPADS v2.0 (no manual submission); tight deadline of ~9 months from notice issue; LCBS evaluation favours cost competitiveness over technical differentiation. Likely one-off procurement tied to FY2026-27 capex cycle. Bidder must have EPADS registration already active.
Who can bid: Bidders must be registered on EPADS v2.0 portal. Typically, vendors require NTN, SECP registration (if applicable), and tax compliance clearance. No PEC category restriction stated (HVAC equipment procurement often accepts registered vendors without construction license). Specific eligibility criteria in detailed bidding documents; verify EPADS portal for complete requirements.
