SSGC is procuring refrigerant gases through an open national tender on EPADS.
Suppliers must register on the government e-procurement portal and submit bids electronically by November 5, 2026. Bid security is mandatory. The procurement uses least-cost selection, suggesting competitive pricing pressure. Refrigerant supply is operationally critical for SSGC's gas distribution activities. This appears to be a one-off purchase for FY 2026-27 rather than a recurring framework contract.
Who can bid: Bidders must register on EPADS v2.0 and be eligible under Public Procurement Rules 2026. Typically, suppliers of refrigerant gases require NTN registration with FBR, valid business registration, and compliance with environmental regulations governing controlled refrigerants. The notice does not specify PEC category or sector-specific licensing requirements beyond EPADS registration.
