For Bidders: Our Analysis PAKISTANTENDER INSIGHT

FESCO is procuring electrical and civil services across four Punjab divisions (Faisalabad, Jhang, Sargodha, Mianwali) through four separate tender packages.
Work involves HT/LT electrification—both new installations and upgrades to overhead and underground systems. This is a rate-contract framework agreement structure, implying ongoing work spanning the financial year 2026-27 rather than a fixed one-off project. Scale appears medium-to-large given multi-division geographic spread and requirement for PEC C4+ category contractors. Tight 5-day bidding window suggests pre-qualified vendors were anticipated.
Who can bid: Must be PEC-registered with active C4 or higher category holding specialization codes EE-04 (electrical), EE-05 (electrical), and CE-10 (civil). PRA status required for 2026-27. NTN and SECP registration typically required per PPRA Rules 2004. Bid security (original instrument) mandatory; failure to submit results in automatic rejection.
