For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT
Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
FESCO is procuring materials for a new 132 kV grid station (Rasool Pura/Bandala-II) in Faisalabad—a medium-scale infrastructure supply contract.
This is a one-off grid development project for FY 2026-27. The e-bidding closure (September 2026) suggests moderate lead time. Least Cost selection means price competitiveness is critical; bidders should verify detailed technical specs on EPADS as they directly impact material sourcing and costing. Single-envelope format streamlines evaluation but leaves no room for technical clarification post-submission.
Who can bid: Bidders must register on EPADS v2.0 before participation. No explicit PEC category stated for suppliers (unlike construction contracts). Typically, material suppliers require NTN/SECP registration and valid tax status. FESCO may impose vendor-specific prequalification criteria detailed in the full bidding documents—review mandatory.
