Independent analysis by PakistanTender — not part of the official notice. Always confirm details against the original tender document.
WAPDA seeks design-manufacture-supply-test-commission of 500KV circuit breakers, disconnect switches, current transformers plus SCADA modernization (energy meters, protection systems) for Tarbela units 11–14.
This is a large, dual-scope infrastructure upgrade indicating aging asset replacement across critical generation infrastructure. Two separate references (OP/ITR-875, OP/ITR-876) suggest component and systems packages may be bid independently or jointly. 580-day equipment and 540-day SCADA timelines are substantial but not unusually compressed. Government buyer implies strict compliance and lengthy pre-contract cycles.
Who can bid: Typically required: PEC Category A or equivalent for high-voltage electrical equipment manufacturing; SECP registration and active NTN; WAPDA pre-qualification or demonstrated prior experience with large transmission-class equipment. International bidders likely permissible given EPADS framework. Specific restrictions not stated in summary—check full RFP.
